Series Review: Cancer and Modern Science
"...with a highly readable design, including crisp color photos and anatomical diagrams, the series will also serve the needs of student researchers. Also features excellent, extensive back batter, with a glossary, a bibliography, and Web sites."
--Booklist

Series Review:
"With vivid electron micrographic images... these slim, colorful volumes are certainly eye-catching to potential researchers... Photographs, diagrams, multihued headings, and spotlighted inserts are plentiful... are solid overviews of the current understanding of these conditions..."
--School Library Journal

Series Review:
"The colorful photos or illustrations enhance the understanding of the text... a multipage glossary defines confusing scientific terms."
--Nancy Kuta, Juanita High School LWSD
