Cancer Education in High School Biology Textbooks.
Barrow, Lloyd H.; Bitner, Betty L.
School Science and Mathematics, v84 n4 p285-96 Apr 1984
Examined biology textbooks to determine their cancer education content. Because the analysis of six commonly utilized textbooks showed that none addressed all categories related to scientific, clinical, and psycho-social aspects of cancer, it is recommended that textbooks be supplemented with other sources providing information on cancer.
