Review
From the reviews:
"This volume about pancreatic cancer defines the standard on multimodality care ... . All chapters of this volume are written by outstanding authors who are among the leading world experts, and it is completed by several tables and high-quality images ... .

"This monograph covers all current aspects of the management of pancreatic cancer in commendable detail. The book is well produced and contains sufficient illustrations in high quality black and white. ...
