This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

These two volumes represent the proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Hyperthermic Oncology held in Kyoto in September 1988. There is an enormous amount of information here, with over 1700 pages and more than 400 presentations from the most basic, through clinical experience to the physics of hyperthermia.

Volume 1 contains a vast number of summary papers, up to three pages in length, on all aspects of hyperthermia. Only the really dedicated "hyperthermist" will find this volume of value.
