SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Now in a second edition, this publication explains how national cancer control programmes, integrated with existing health systems, represent the best available method to control both the causes and the consequences of cancer. Recommendations are drawn from a strong conceptual management framework and from the practical experience of over 50 countries. This comprehensive approach addresses all aspects of cancer control including prevention, treatment and palliation. It stresses the need for basing policies and programmes on evidence, and promotes a systematic, balanced and coordinated approach.
