Lung Cancer

The Facts

By: Christopher John Hacon Williams

Lung cancer is primarily a disease of well-developed affluent countries. It is by far the most common cancer in men, and is poised to overtake breast cancer as the most common cancer in women. Yet, although it is common, preventable, and sometimes curable, very little information isavailable about what happens when you get it - which is when accessible information is most needed. In a clear, non-emotive style, this revised and updated new edition provides the answers to the questions patients with lung cancers or those involved with them are likely to ask. The first section describes the causes (and includes a chapter on stopping smoking), diagnosis, and progression of thedisease. There follows a section on the curative and symptomatic treatments available for the different types of lung cancer; and the third section, new for this edition, discusses the future prospects for the disease and its treatment. Also included are a glossary, a list of further reading, andan extensive list of addresses of organizations which can provide help and advice.

British and Irish Paintings in Public Collections

An Index of British and Irish Oil Paintings by Artists Born Before 1870 in Public and Institutional Collections in the United Kingdom and Ireland

By: Christopher Wright,Catherine May Gordon

This book sets a new standard as a work of reference. It covers British and Irish art in public collections from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the end of the nineteenth, and it encompasses nearly 9,000 painters and 90,000 paintings in more than 1,700 separate collections. The book includes as well pictures that are now lost, some as a consequence of the Second World War and others because of de-accessioning, mostly from 1950 to about 1975 when Victorian art was out of fashion. By listing many tens of thousands of previously unpublished works, including around 13,000 which do not yet have any form of attribution, this book becomes a unique and indispensable work of reference, one that will transform the study of British and Irish painting.

Supportive Care of the Cancer Patient

By: J. W. Sweetenham,Christopher John Hacon Williams

Throughout this century patients with cancer have endured often harsh treatments with the hope that any adversity will have been worth the ultimate cure. As the effects of the underlying tumour and its therapy can often make the patient very ill, careful management is required if the harmful complications of the cancer itself and the side effects of the drugs and radiation are to be avoided. 'Supportive Care of the Cancer Patient' provides strategies for the optimum management of such patients. The emphasis is on maximising both quality and duration of life. As well as focusing on the serious and often life-threatening complications resulting from cancer and its treatment, this book offers guidance on psychological support for cancer patients and their medical carers, the role of cytokines, and interventional radiology in the management of malignant disease. 'Supportive Care of the Cancer Patient' will prove invaluable to all those caring for cancer patients, particulary those patients undergoing intensive chemotherapy.
