The Exposome in Cancer Disparities, 1st Edition, provides a structural analysis of environmental pressures and infectious agents that shape cancer disparities across low- and middle-income nations. Designed for cancer researchers, epidemiologists, public health professionals, and healthcare practitioners, the volume establishes a systematic approach to studying disease incidence across populations in resource-limited settings.

The text emphasizes biological and environmental exposure pathways that shape health outcomes. It examines infectious agents such as human papillomavirus (HPV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) as major risk factors, demonstrating how viral burdens intersect with local conditions in low-resource regional contexts.

Furthermore, the text addresses gene-environment interactions alongside microbiome implications for cancer risk. By detailing these interconnected mechanisms, the publication supports investigators and practitioners who seek to analyze complex exposure profiles and evaluate population-level susceptibility across diverse global health environments.
