Description
Summary:This book reports on the VIIIth Wilsede Meeting on Modern Trends in Human Leukemia held in June 1988. The contributions are divided into clinical, immunological, cell biological, virological and molecular genetic sections. The Wilsede Joint Meeting on Pediatric Oncology V is also included. The Frederick Stohlmann Lectures were given by Janet Rowley and Malcolm Moore, while C. Gajdusek gave a very special lecture on the fantasy of a virus from the inorganic world. Bone marrow transplantation, using haemopoetic growth factors and the diagnostic value of molecular genetics were discussed. The VIIIth Wilsede Meeting shows again that the new technologies achieved do not eliminate the old ones. This was discussed by Alexander Friedenstein shown in the results Alexander Maximov achieved in 1907. The book demonstrates the complexity of leukemia research as a tool for human biology. The book will be of value to both clinicians and researchers in many fields of oncology, as well as for investigators and students interested in human biology. Of further interest: R. Neth, R.C.
