From the reviews:"This book describes cancer vaccine protocols targeting cancers that have already developed, stimulating the immune system against the tumor to stop cancer cell growth and reduce tumor burden. ... The audience includes established researchers, professors, and healthcare professionals who have a basic understanding of general and tumor immunology. ... This is a well-written, well-structured book that covers a rapidly developing and highly important field of vaccine cancer research." (K. K. Wong, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2014)
