This document provides a summary of the contents of a book on tumours and cancers of the breast. It includes:
1. An outline of the book's chapters which cover topics like TNM staging of breast cancers, classifications of different types of epithelial and mesenchymal tumours of the breast, genetic syndromes associated with breast cancers, and metastases to the breast.
2. Lists of abbreviations and contributors used in the book.
3. Descriptions of different types of benign and malignant tumours that can occur in the breast, nipple, and male breast.
4. Discussions of precursors to breast cancers like ductal carcinoma in situ and classifications of invasive breast cancers.
