内容説明

The cachexia-anorexia syndrome, which includes anorexia, wasting, anaemia, weakness, general debility and chronic nausea, is the most frequent problem suffered by cancer patients in addition to pain. Much new knowledge has recently been gained about the syndrome and this volume is a comprehensive source of reference on basic and clinical aspects. It also suggests areas where future research is appropriate.
