متن يادداشت
"Cancer Prevention and Management through Exercise and Weight Control brings together the contributions of world-class researchers to lay out the evidence and plan of attack for coping with this health crisis. They assess the complex associations between activity, energy balance, risk, and prognosis. Considering comprehensive literature reviews, they examine the role of physical activity in the incidence of individual cancers, then explore the mechanisms that might explain this connection. They also consider the relation between weight and the genetics of obesity as it pertains to cancer, and review the new field of genetics, physical activity, and cancer, which identifies individuals who might be helped with exercise."
