About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This highly specialized book is an extensive, multiauthored discussion of Lynch syndrome. … From health professionals implementing general health surveillance to oncologists and geneticists dealing with populations at risk of Lynch syndrome, this is a must-have book. Cancer genetics clinics should count this as part of their resources to provide accurate information to their patients. … There are no comparable publications. This book is unique in its concentration on a single disorder, and it achieves its goals with outstanding writing and planning.” (Luis F. Escobar, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2013)Editors and Affiliations
