Hyperthermia is an abnormally high body temperature, usually resulting from infection, medication, or head injury, and sometimes brought about intentionally to treat diseases, especially certain cancers. In this book, a variety of hyperthermia related physiological and pathological phenomena described. This book will help the readers comprehensive view on the basic and practical knowledge of hyperthermia.
