Pharmacologic interventions to prevent the evolution of human cancers are still in its infancy, although a good number o- mostly controlled - clinical studies have been performed in the past two decades. However, regarding the partially stagnating therapeutic results of major epithelial cancer types such as breast-, lung-, colon- and ENT-cancer types, the problem of in terference with the evolution of disease at a preclinical level is an intriguing one, and the field seems to develop into one of the fastest growing domaines of modern oncology. This process is fa cilitated by the developments of molecular on co-genetics and the gowing existence of family cancer units, allowing to better identi fy and inform respective high risk groups, thus enabling re searchers and clinicians to more realistically target their chemo preventive efforts to the true populations at risk. On this changing background, the newly formed International Society of Cancer Chemoprevention (ISCaC) together with the Swiss Cancer League and the Interdisciplinary Oncology Center of St. Gallen/Switzerland organized an international Symposium in September 1997, inviting basic researchers, epidemiologists and clinical oncologists of related disciplines to discuss pertinent issues of experimental and clinical chemo- and bio-prevention in a scientific workshop.

L’opera nasce dall’esigenza di raccogliere in una pubblicazione unitaria le conoscenze sul tema dei disturbi cognitivi nella malattia di Parkinson e nei “parkinsonismi”. Il forte impulso dato alla ricerca sull’argomento ha, infatti, prodotto negli ultimi anni un’ampia letteratura che documenta l’elevato livello di complessità della questione, per la cui comprensione si rende necessaria un’analisi ragionata di natura multidimensionale. La parte iniziale dell’opera è dedicata all’illustrazione delle caratteristiche neuropatologiche che definiscono la malattia di Parkinson. I successivi contributi si incentrano sulle proprietà dei deficit neuropsicologici e sui metodi di valutazione attualmente disponibili. Ampio spazio è riservato, in questa parte, alla discussione sui modelli di interpretazione neurobiologica dei deficit cognitivi con particolare attenzione all’interazione tra tali disturbi e i meccanismi d’azione di neurotrasmettitori/neuromodulatori quali, ad esempio, l’acetilcolina e la dopamina. I capitoli della sezione finale del volume sono dedicati alla disamina dei correlati neurali dei deficit neuropsicologici nella malattia di Parkinson così come emergono dall’applicazione di metodiche di neuroimaging e di stimolazione magnetica transcranica.Il duplice vertice teorico/clinico mantenuto nella trattazione dei contenuti rende l’opera fruibile da un’ampia audience di operatori. In particolare, neurologi, psicologi, neuropsicologi, geriatri, fisiatri, psichiatri, logopedisti e fisioterapisti possono trovare nel libro un valido strumento di aggiornamento e approfondimento professionale. Il volume, per sua natura, può inoltre rappresentare un utile riferimento di studio per soggetti in formazione. Infine, nelle intenzioni dei curatori l’opera vuole anche essere uno strumento di sensibilizzazione sull’importanza che riveste la “questione cognitiva” nella gestione complessiva della malattia di Parkinson per professionisti, quali, ad esempio, i medici di base, che hanno in molti casi il primo contatto con il paziente.
