Book Description
The main objective of the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5) series, published by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the International Association of Cancer Registries (IACR), is to present comparable data on cancer incidence for all countries around the world for which high-quality data have been made available by population-basedcancer registries. CI5 is an invaluable source of information about the global burden and distribution of cancer, and Volume XI has a wider coverage than ever, presenting high-quality standardized data for cancers diagnosed during the period 2008-2012 from 343 cancer registries in 65 countries.

Book Description
The CD-ROM contains cancer incidence data from around 200 population-based cancer registries world-wide, for the period 1953-1997, that were published in the eight volumes of the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5) series. The data are stored in the traditional form of number of cases by sex, five-year age group and cancer (no individual records). They are recorded as text files in Comma-Separated-Value (CSV) format, and can easily be incorporated into statistical packages for further analysis. The detailed description of the cancer (including morphological sub-types) and the registry dictionaries are provided in the printed booklet together with the file layout. In addition, the CD-ROM contains two Windows-based software programs, with basic tabulation and graphic capabilities. Using these programs, summary rates (crude, age-standardized and cumulative) can be calculated over any chosen age-range. They also permit aggregation of both cancer sites and populations.

Book Description
In 1966, following the Ninth International Cancer Congress in Tokyo, the Commission on Epidemiology and Prevention of the International Union against Cancer formed a new Committee on Cancer Incidence. This Committee met in Lausanne in May 1968 and decided that the monograph on Cancer Incidence in Five Continents, which had been published by the UICC tw~ years previously, had been so useful that a second volume should be published as soon as a suf ficient amount of new material could be collected. The Committee delegated the responsibility for the production of this volume to the Editors of the original monograph and to the Honorary Secretary of the Committee, Dr C. S. Muir. Mr P. Payne, however, was unable to continue in this capacity because of the pressure of other commitments. The Editors have 1eant heavily on the skills and knowledge of Dr A. J. Tuyns and Dr H. Tu1inius, who have been responsible for the preparation of Chapters II and IV respectively and for the collection of a large part of the material presented in them. They are also greatly indebted to Miss J~ Powell of the Birmingham Cancer Registry, who wrote the computer programme for calcu lating the age-specific and standardized incidence rates, in conjunction with Dr J. A. H. Waterhouse, and supervised the operation of the computer, as well as to Mme J.
