First-of-its-kind resource exploring how cancer care fits into a general health system, contributed to by internationally eminent interdisciplinary experts

Cancer Systems and Control for Health Professionals delivers a comprehensive overview of the subject of cancer control, cancer services and systems organization and performance, principles of care delivery, cancer policy and social issues. Its distinguishing feature lies in its systematic exploration of cancer through a holistic lens, emphasizing systems-level understanding and the application of cancer control theory principles to address its complexities.

Through this holistic lens, readers are invited to appreciate the complex interactions of patients, caregivers, cancer biology, health policy, politics and health human resources. Readers will find strategies to reduce the incidence, morbidity, and mortality of cancer and to improve the quality of life through the implementation of prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, and supportive and palliative care in a population.

Throughout the text, examples are given of how understanding different cancer control ecosystems can improve engagement in various parts of the world.

With contributions by global experts in the field with diverse backgrounds in education, technology, public health, health policy, and advocacy, Cancer Systems and Control for Health Professionals explore diverse topics including:

  • Political and economic factors that frame cancer control
  • The role of data management practices in advancing cancer control efforts and reducing inequality related to gender, race, and other demographic factors
  • The transformative potential of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing
  • The complex interplay between social determinants of health, health economics, and cancer control strategies
  • The urgency of addressing structural barriers to foster health equity and position cancer care within broader socio-political contexts

Cancer Systems and Control for Health Professionals is a timely, forward-thinking resource on the subject for oncologists, cancer professionals and researchers, public health professionals and researchers, and cancer control experts, along with students in related programs of study.
