Cancer on Trial: Oncology as a New Style of Practice
Peter Keating
Until the early 1960s, cancer treatment consisted of surgery and radiation therapy. Most practitioners then viewed the treatment of terminally ill cancer patients with heroic courses of chemotherapy as highly questionable. This title explores how practitioners established a style of practice, at the center of which lies the clinical cancer trial.
