Abstract: The availability of human genome, large amount of data on individual genetic variations, environmental interactions, influence of lifestyle, and cutting-edge tools and technologies for big-data analysis have led to the era of clinical practice of "Precision Medicine". This book aims to provide a readily available resource on all the important developments achieved so far in the field of oncology. All recent developments have been explained along with epidemiology, technologies and approaches to manage the included diseases. Therefore, readers will get the up to date information on the next-generation approach in tackling all kinds of cancer.Key Features• Presents the latest trend of cancer management based on precision/predictive medicine approach• Reviews the latest and up to date literature in the field of Precision Medicine• Highlights the next generation approach in tackling malignant diseases• Discusses how a life-threatening disease like cancer can be managed with the help of Precision Medicine• Encapsulates a global prospective.
