In its first edition, this book established itself as the classic text on Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas, a group of blood malignancies associated most commonly with children and now on the increase in the West.
The success of the first edition lay in the skill with which Dr Magrath integrated the molecular biology of cancer with the clinical management. In this second, considerably expanded edition approximately two-thirds of the text and illustrations are new, and the remaining third has been extensively revised, with areas of controversy given special consideration. In particular, detailed information is now provided on recently defined sub-types of lymphoma which were mentioned only briefly in the first edition.
