Description
Summary:	Provides a review of current knowledge of macrophage biology relating to cancer. Each separately authored chapter highlights a particular aspect of macrophage biology and describes the current studies of each contributor. Chapters describe the nature and possible origin of the phenotypic heterogeneity of macrophages, the mechanisms of macrophage effector function as well as the consequent tumor cell reaction to these activities. The tumor cell-macrophage interaction is a complex process influenced by many factors. This monograph will make a measurable contribution to our grip on these phenomena.
