(More customer reviews)These guys have literally written the book on Cancer Control!
Drs Sutcliffe and Elwood have come forth with the definite text showing how a population-based approach to comprehensive cancer control can over time reduce cancer incidence and mortality, extend cancer survival, and improve quality of life and the quality of the end-of-life for cancer patients, cancer survivors, and entire populations.
Essential reading for anyone involved in cancer prevention and control, this scholarly but readable text will be an eye-opener for most health system planners and administrators (both at national and state levels), private health plan managers, employers, and health benefits managers regarding just how much more cancer control could be achieved with current spending or modest increases in spending.
It is also a practical guide for civil society advocates who mobilize and campaign for more effective cancer prevention and cancer care: what they can and should demand of health system managers and those who finance the range of activities and services that constitute Cancer Control.

Cancer control is the term applied to the development of integrated population-based approaches to reduce the incidence and mortality from cancer and to minimize its impact on affected individuals and on the community. It covers a spectrum of prevention, early diagnosis, optimal treatment, and supportive and palliative care. It emphasizes the application of new knowledge gained through research to achieve current best practice. Cancer control has become a political priority in many countries in recent years, with the evolution of both national and regional cancer control strategic plans. The integrated nature of cancer control, involving a wide spectrum of health care professionals, researchers, and health managers and planners, is reflected in this multi-disciplinary text, which is the first in this rapidly developing field.
