From the considerable expertise of the Mayo Clinic, this book spans the gamut from multiple myeloma, the most frequent and most serious of the monoclonal gammopathies, to the rarest related disorders. Laboratory evaluation, associations with nonhematologic disorders, monoclonal gammopathies of undetermined significance, the more obscure plasma cell dyscrasias, amyloidosis, other immunoglobulin deposition disorders, Waldenstr÷m macroglobulinemia, and Fanconi anemia are among the topics covered. Particular attention is paid to multiple myeloma: history, pathogenesis, clinical and laboratory diagnosis, modern therapy, and prognosis.

Advances in Cancer Research
Volume 68 of <b>Advances in Cancer Research</b> continues the tradition of publishing up-to-date reviews and "hot" topics in cancer research. This volume begins with a "Foundations in Cancer Research" article by Harald zur Hausen that reviews his years of research on the idea that cancer can be triggered by infection. The structure and function of the cytokine receptor superfamily and its association with leukemias are discussed in depth by James Ihle. Marcia Hall and Gordon Peters review the evidence indicating that genetic abnormalities hinder the function of certain cyclins and their inhibitors. The most widely studied protooncogene, c-<i>myc</i>, is reviewed by Marie Henriksson and Bernhard Lüscher&#x3b; the chapter focuses on the function of c-<i>myc</i> as a transcription factor rather than on the effects of gene translocation and activation on malignancies. Ham Werner and Derek LeRoith present data on the role that insulin-like growth factors play on cell growth and regulation. In the final chapter, Olli-P. Kallioniemi and Tapio Visakorpi investigate the field of prostate cancer and, more importantly, the biological reason and natural history behind the growth of this cancer.
