"The focus is on the treatment of oncologic emergencies in cancer patients and survivors. This is a worthy objective ... . The authors are successful in collecting and organizing a large amount of information in a relatively small book. The intended audience is 'anyone who is ever faced with an acutely ill cancer patient or survivor.' ... I would recommend it to clinicians who are caring more exclusively for oncology patients." (Michael D. Zwank, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2016)
