Reviews
"The book fulfills its purpose and is, indeed, a must-read for students of cancer biology...It includes updated information and concepts in cancer research that justify replacing the previous edition." - Doody Reviews "This publication represents an exhaustive and detailed coverage of the field of basic oncology oriented toward a student audience, and it continues to set the highest example of excellence in the field of undergraduate and graduate oncology." - The Quarterly Review of Biology "Clearly, not only is it an authoritative text book on the complex biology of cancer, it serves as an invaluable reference document for individuals working in biomedical laboratories as well as professionals involved in day to day management of cancer in the clinics." - Oncology News Praise for the First Edition of THE BIOLOGY OF CANCER by Robert A. Weinberg: "There is no comparable text in cancer biology..." - Nature "The Biology of Cancer is no doubt the definitive statement on its topic today." - Science "Here, at last, we have a definitive textbook specifically devoted to the molecular and cell biology of cancer." - Bioscience Education "Overall, this is a remarkable achievement that is by far the most comprehensive coverage of this field available." - Times Higher Education Supplement, "The book fulfills its purpose and is, indeed, a must-read for students of cancer biology...It includes updated information and concepts in cancer research that justify replacing the previous edition." - Doody Reviews Praise for the First Edition of THE BIOLOGY OF CANCER by Robert A.

Not only is it the perfect text for a serious course on cancer biology, it should be read by every cancer researcher - Bruce Alberts, University of California, San Francisco, USA The Biology of Canceris no doubt the definitive statement on its topic today. -Science, 11 August 2006: Vol. 313. no. 5788 There is no comparable text in cancer biology and no single book that is so current and informative. -Nature, November 30, 2006, Vol 444 'The Biology of Cancer, written by the distinguished American cancer biologist Robert Weinberg, is by far the most extensive of these new works and, as the product of a single author, is a remarkable achievement. The book is beautifully illustrated in full colour and well supplied with key review articles. It is extremely well written in language that should be accessible to the non-expert. Overall, this is a remarkable achievement that is by far the most comprehensive coverage of this field available.' - The Times Higher Education Supplement, February 23rd 2007 "The breadth of the topics covered, the clear writing style, the logical organization and the beautiful figures make The Biology of Cancer a classic text for any biologist interested in cancer...An additional strength of the book is the multimedia CD... Thus, The Biology of Cancer is not only a great read but also an outstanding learning tool."-Nature Cell Biology(November 2007) vol. 9, no. 11
