Abstract

This very attractively produced, well illustrated book sets out to be a didactic comprehensive text “that is organised to provide practical assistance in the day to day treatment of the individual patient”. It is unusual in dealing with both Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin lymphomas and with the management of both adults and children. This unifying approach is both logical and welcome although perhaps it leads in some places to a certain sketchiness and avoidance of controversy. This lack of adequate discussion of controversial areas is probably influenced by the choice of authors: of the 25 contributors, 21 are from the M. D. Anderson Hospital, the remaining four all being contributors to one chapter only, that on mycosis fungoides.
