| Synopsis: |
This volume examines the overall incidence of breast cancer in African Americans and strives to understand why the incidence in African Americans is 12 per cent higher than in the Caucasian Americans, and why the mortality rate is 29 per cent higher. The authors examine the potential causes for such differences (from differences in treatment to differences in the progression of the disease itself). Questions for future research are outlined. |
