      abstract = {This book provides research-oriented care providers with  up-to-date information on the oral cancer patient  population, the ways in which we are treating them, and the  scientific approaches being pursued in order to improve  survival and reduce treatment-related morbidity. The text  is organized into three sections covering epidemiology and  management, cancer development and biomarkers, and breaking  developments and novel approaches for drug discovery. The  first section includes discussion of the emerging role of  human papillomavirus in oral cancer and explains the  surgical, chemotherapy, and radiation approaches to  treatment. Aspects such as molecular progression and  signaling, the role of cancer stem cells in tumor  development, and the value of various biomarkers are then  examined. The final section is devoted to the latest  advances and covers, among other topics, current clinical  trials, emerging drug targets, and targeting of the  unfolded protein response and of mediators of coagulation.  Recent decades have witnessed a significant increase in the  number of deaths worldwide from cancers of the oral cavity,  pharynx, and oropharynx. Targeting Oral Cancer will be an  excellent resource for practitioners and researchers and  will hopefully assist in the urgent quest to improve  screening and prevention, diagnosis, and treatment  approaches.},
