Likewise, miconazole was superficially treated by multiple authors. I believe that the controversy over its toxicity and efficacy warranted considerably m o r e attention. I think the b o o k would have greatly benefited from a single person drawing together all views or treatment, just as was d o n e for immune defects. F o r example, it is possible for the reader to interpret the regimen presented for m u c o r m y c o s i s as being the only way to give amphotericin B for this mycosis, versus another specific regimen as being the only correct a p p r o a c h to Candida sepsis. Nevertheless, with the exceptions mentioned above, the b o o k should be a helpful addition to the medical library particularly for the oncologist looking for guidance a b o u t these vexing problems in i m m u n e c o m p r o m i s e d patients.  (...truncated)
