I enjoyed reading this book because it was written for health professionals who face patients with gynaecological cancer and not only for palliative care specialists. (...) I welcome this book to the series and congratulate the authors, who show and skill in providing emotional and medical support in pursuit of the well-being of suffering patients.

The main strength of the book is its emphasis on practical issues and a multidisciplinary approach to patient management . . . It was particularly refreshing to see emphasis on the appropriateness of various interventions depending on the patient's goals, life expectancy and the likelihood of improving quality of life . . . In summary, this book was informative and easy to read . . . The book would serve as a very useful starting point for all members of a multidisciplinary team caring for patients with gynaecological malignancies.
