The explosion in knowledge of genetics screening during the past decade has led to the availability of abundant information about the incidence of screening causing mutations disease penetrance and risk reduction strategies. The application of this information to clinical practice is enormously challenging because of the lack of prospective randomized trials and the inherent individual variability of preferences regarding ways of reducing risk. The attitudes of patients towards genetic testing for mutations that cause cancer add to the complexity of decisions about the appropriate use of the results of such tests by physicians. This text book is a timely publication and it gives a splendid overview of the genetics screening. This edited text covers all of the major areas of interest in considering familial and genetics screening areas. 327 pp. Artikel-Nr. 59162
