Written by the Association of Paediatric Oncology Nurses (APON), the newly organized and expanded third edition of "Nursing Care of Children and Adolescents with Cancer" stands alone as the definitive work examining the foundations, treatments, and supportive care of children and adolescents with cancer. Most importantly, content specific to cancer in adolescents has been interspersed into this edition, highlighting the differences in child and adolescent cancer and treatment. In addition to discussing common and rare diseases chapter-by-chapter, this text addresses professional practice issues such as interdisciplinary collaboration, research, and ethics, as well. Actual case studies and accompanying patient photographs highlight the personal approach that is needed in child and adolescent cancer nursing.
