Summary: Comprehensive but incohesive
Comment: This is supposed to be an overview of rad therapy, and it definitely does the job. As it should, it doesn't go into great depth on any one topic. It's broken down into an intro, physics and practical applications. But I did wish the authors spend more time on treatment planning, and perhaps less so on the basics like mathematics, which I would hope most students are proficient in. Because this book is a collection of chapters written by diff authors, the text can get incohesive or repetitive at times. And there are chapters that are written in a convoluted style like pathology. Likewise, I didn't find the physics section particularly cohesive. However, the book does make its money on the practical applications section.

Summary: To outdo oneself
Comment: Mr. Washington,whom I know personally as Charles, did any staff member who works in a radiation oncology department, or any student who wants to work in radiation oncology, a great service by revising and updating his three books and combining them into one. As a therapist learning dosimetry this has been an awfully good reference book. I gave my brand new copy as a graduation present to a recently graduated radiologic technologist student who wants to become a radiation therapist. I can't tell you how much he appreciated it.
