ABSTRACT
First published in 1986, this comprehensive work focuses on the "Acute and Chronic Transforming Retroviruses," "Cellular and Viral Oncogenes," "Functions of Oncogene and Protooncogene Protein Products," and "Oncogenes and Cancer." The number of oncogenes presently identified has grown to more than double of that which was discussed in the first edition of this book. It more clearly explains the relation of protooncogenes to neoplastic diseases, especially to human cancer. This updated edition is an absolute must for all physicians and biologists.
