About this book
Cancer genetics has revolutionized the practice of medicine as inherited genetic
information helps predicts which individuals are at risk of developing various
forms of cancer. Furthermore, somatically acquired genetic changes help identify
therapeutic targets for patients with several common tumor types such as breast
and colon cancer. Cancer Genetics reviews seminal discoveries such as genetic
susceptibility to gastric cancer, ethical issues related to cancer genetics,
the role of common variants in the development of breast cancer, novel genetic
findings related to neuroblastoma, and the role of constitutively decreased
TGF-beta signaling, which is emerging as one of the most common causes of colorectal
cancer. The book has been written for all clinicians and researchers interested
in cancer genetics, including oncologists, genetic counselors and cancer researchers
both in academia and in industry. "Genetic alterations are a fundamental
component of all cancers. This text highlights critical issues relevant for
both basic scientists and clinicians. Recognized thought leaders in the field
discuss current knowledge and future challenges." - Steven T. Rosen, M.D.,
