Cancer Incidence in Jewish Migrants to Israel, 1961-1981

This volume is the culmination of twenty-one years of work by the Israel Cancer Registry. Represents the largest study ever of cancer incidence in migrant populations, it brings together material published previously by IARC in four volumes of the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents series, in many articles by the staff of the registry, and other experts in the field. The data has been painstakingly verified, and special care has been taken to retrieve missing or incomplete information, making this the largest student ever in this area. The results are presented in easy to use, yet extensive tables that are convenient for researchers wishing to extract information about particular populations and/or cancer sites. The editors have provided valuable commentary, drawing attention to salient findings and suggesting possible explanations.Steinitz, Ruth is the author of 'Cancer Incidence in Jewish Migrants to Israel, 1961-1981' with ISBN 9789283211983 and ISBN 9283211987.
