  The eighth volume of the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents series presents comprehensive data on cancer incidence for over 200 populations worldwide, for the period 1993-1997. For each population, age-specific, standardized and cumulative incidence rates are given by sex, for different types of cancer.
 
The book follows the traditional format, with background chapters and descriptions of the areas and populations presented, as well as quality indicators.
 
A CD-ROM presents detailed data on incidence by site, age and histological type. It contains the tabulated data as text files for further analysis using standard statistical packages (SAS, Stata, SPSS etc).
