Best known as Walter and Miller, over the years this book has become the core text for therapeutic radiography students and an important introductory text for trainee radiologists and clinical physicists.
It is divided into 2 parts: the first covers underlying principles of physics and the second (and longer) part deals with radiotherapy and oncology. The book underwent a major overhaul and expansion (of part 2) in the previous edition, which firmly established it as the outstanding work of its kind in this field.
