This book was recommended to me by a NP that specializes in wound care and has a husband that was an onocology patient. Had copies of this book purchased for our department since see so many skin issues with our patients. Radiation is a very specific, small speciality where a lot of the standard wound care wisdom doesn't apply.

A very good book for caring oncology patients with dermotology issues.Easy to understand.
