| Summary, etc | Modern oncology has evolved remarkably over the past two decades, so that now able to treat the unique pathology and disease processes associated with pediatric tumors. Clinicians increasingly must have a comprehensive background in the molecular basis of cancer, as it takes a leading role in determining diagnosis and treatment. The incidence of cancer worldwide for age matched controls for all sites varies between 220 and 320 per 100,000 populations. The highest incidence is in the South American continent followed by Australia, Europe, Africa, North America and Asia in the decreasing order. The term ‘childhood cancer’ describes cancer diagnosed before the age of 15. This includes 30 percent of the total cases of cancer. About half of these die each year. The content of the book is exhaustive and covers a wide spectrum of both pediatric medical and surgical oncologic topics. Most of the contributors are cancer experts from Asian countries including India, Japan, China and Korea. Some of the contributors from Europe have been active in the SIOP study groups and a sparse number from the US and Africa involved with COG studies and similar cancer protocols. The content focuses mainly on surgical oncologic care. The book has been divided into seven sections for easy understanding and smooth flow of ideas from one section to the other. Section 1 on Basic Sciences provides an insight into the epidemiology, genetics, pathology and recent developments in the diagnosis of the various tumors.
