Breast cancer constitutes 32% of all cancers in women, and it would not be unexpected if books devoted to this subject were commonplace. The first book in the United States devoted exclusively to the breast appeared in 1887, and subsequently some 240 more have been published. Recently, several excellent texts have appeared, and one may well ask "Why another?" First, there is always room for excellence, but, more important, the fast-moving field of breast cancer mandates continued updating, which this volume does very well. In the past two decades, there has been an explosion of information on breast disease with no apparent signs of plateauing. This current effort is large (more than 1000 pages) with 20 sections and 55 chapters covering the subject matter one would expect in a book purporting to be "comprehensive." The first chapter, on historical perspectives, is a welcome addition in an easily readable and informative

Aim: The objective of this study was to analyze the predictors of breast self-examination practices of nursing students at the Catholic Sedes Sapientiae University, Lima, Peru, 2019.
Methods: It was an observational, analytical and cross-sectional study. The target population were 92 university students of both sexes. In order to analyze this, the researchers passed an evaluation guide to measure the breast self-examination technique, a self-directed questionnaire to assess this technique’s knowledge, and a data sheet for the variable performance of breast self-examination, among other sociodemographic and academic training variables. 
Results: Part of the main results show that 65.22% of the students did not perform breast self-examinations, and the average of the technique was low with a range of 0 to 12 points (M=4.41). The results also evidenced that the predictors of the performance of the breast self-examination were the high level of knowledge of this technique (PR: 8.73; p=0.022), the age (PR: 1.04; p=0.021), and the training (PR: 2.42; p=0.005). The predictors of the technique were the knowledge about it (coefficient: 1.70; p=0.023) and the age (coefficient: 1.70; p=0.023).
Conclusion: In conclusion, the majority of students did not carry out the practices on breast self-examination; likewise, the predictors of these practices are the knowledge about this technique, the age, and the training. Given these findings, educational, promotional, and preventive interventions should be provided to the students.
