This book brings a new approach to the subject of melanoma, highlighting the current areas of controversy and debate. A wide spectrum, ranging from clinical investigation into the scientific basis of the disease through to its management and prognosis, is covered. In each section, selection of controversial issues are discussed. Internationally renowned experts critically appraise the literature and combine this with their own clinical and research experience to present an informed view of a range of issues. Arguments are therefore supported by the most recently available evidence. "Melanoma: Critical Debates" provides the reader with an up-to-date interpretation of the clinical trial data in this field and their relevance to daily practice.
