Proton radiotherapy uses particle beams to treat tumors located near critical body structures as well as those that respond poorly to conventional photon and electron beam radiotherapy. This text for engineers and physicians presents an overview of the field with a discussion of the fundamentals of particle physics and radiobiology. A sampling of topics includes hadrontherapy facilities world-wide, specifications for proton gantries, radiation detectors, and shielding for the proton facility. The writing style of the authors (both: Warsaw U. of Technology) shows some difficulty with English grammar. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
