_Principles of Cancer Biology, _is an engaging book focused on
providing students with a “big picture” view of cancer. Author
Lewis Kleinsmith has written an instructional text focusing on key
concepts for both students and a general audience. For those
instructors who wish to delve into particular aspects of cancer
biology in greater depth, each chapter contains a list of suggested
readings that expand the detail as needed.
The text also emphasizes the scientific evidence that underlies cancer
biology, and teaches students to think critically about this evidence-
as there are constantly new “breakthroughs” and reports in this
field. For students who need the review, there are brief reviews of
several topics related to DNA replication and repair, cell division,
cell signaling, and inheritance patterns in chapters where these
subjects are relevant. By including these reviews, the text is both
accessible and engaging to a broad audience of readers who are
studying cancer biology for the first time, as well as an interested
general audience.
