“This book explores the immune and epigenetic mechanisms responsible for the development of squamous cell carcinoma. … The audience is dermatologists and oncologists. … When faced with a patient with a high-risk squamous cell carcinoma, this is the reference to turn to for the most up-to-date, multidisciplinary approach.” (Patricia Wong, Doody’s Book Reviews, August, 2016)
