      abstract = {This book provides a unified framework for various  currently available mathematical models that are used to  analyze progression and regression in cancer development,  and to predict its dynamics with respect to therapeutic  interventions. Accurate and reliable model representations  of cancer dynamics are milestones in the field of cancer  research. Mathematical modeling approaches are becoming  increasingly common in cancer research, as these  quantitative approaches can help to validate hypotheses  concerning cancer dynamics and thus elucidate the complexly  interlaced mechanisms involved. Even though the related  conceptual and technical information is growing at an  exponential rate, the application of said information and  realization of useful healthcare devices are lagging  behind. In order to remedy this discrepancy, more  interdisciplinary research works and course curricula need  to be introduced in academic, industrial, and clinical  organizations alike. To that end, this book reformulates  most of the existing mathematical models as special cases  of a general model, allowing readers to easily get an  overall idea of cancer dynamics and its modeling. Moreover,  the book will help bridge the gap between biologists and  engineers, as it brings together cancer dynamics, the main  steps involved in mathematical modeling, and control  strategies developed for cancer management. This also  allows readers in both medical and engineering fields to  compare and contrast all the therapy-based models developed  to date using a single source, and to identify unexplored  research directions.},
