From the reviews:

The purpose is to present a comprehensive overview of all aspects concerning thyroid cancer. The author does a particularly good job of reviewing the entire literature of thyroid cancer, in particular the literature that pertains to controversies in the treatment of thyroid cancer. He does a wonderful job of addressing these controversies. The sections of the book dealing with nuclear medicine issues are particularly outstanding. The author has done a great job of discussing all aspects of thyroid cancer, and the book clearly meets the objectives. I also enjoyed the fact that this book represents one individual's understanding of thyroid cancer, not a book written by a committee. (Ronald Cohen, Doody Enterprises, Inc. - COPYRIGHT 2006) 4 stars Doody's review

He states his aspiration to make the book easy to read, clinically valuable, authoritative, and enjoyable. I believe that he has achieved these aims and has been successful in presenting all sides of controversial issues.&I highly recommend this book to clinicians and patients alike.

This book covers all aspects of the management of patients with thyroid cancer and related nodular disease. Both well-established and new clinical information, such as that on genetic and molecular aspects, is presented in comprehensive and exhaustive chapters written on the basis of personal experience in working for 35 years with patients with thyroid disorders, including thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer.
