Book Description

Scientists may not have found a cure for cancer yet, but medical researchers have discovered plenty of ways to treat and manage the more than 200 varieties of this disease. In Everyone's Guide To Cancer Therapy, readers will learn the latest theories and practical information available in cancer treatment. Written in easy-to-understand text with instructive illustrations, the book outlines everything from getting second opinions to the role of sleep to what's available on the Internet. The editors have built their careers in cancer research and treatment, teaching and taking care of cancer patients. They also rely on assistance from a 140-member board of medical advisers and contributing authors who are top specialists in all fields of cancer research and treatment. Everyone's Guide To Cancer Therapy is a must-have volume for everyone who has cancer or cares about someone who does.

I am a nurse, and I recommend this book to almost everyone. It is written at a decent level - not dumbed down, but not too technical. Information is current, helpful and practical. For less than 25 bucks, it is a bargain! Family and friends will benefit as well as people with cancer.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive and Readable Book on Cancer, Mar 15 2006
By Dorothy A. Hosoda - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Everyone's Guide to Cancer Therapy; 4th Edition: How Cancer Is Diagnosed, Treated, and Managed Day to Day (Paperback)
I received a an earlier edition of this book in 1991 when I was diagnosed with colon cancer and found that the information on cancer was presented in such a way that most people could understand. Since that time, whenever I hear of someone having cancer, I buy a copy of the book and give it to them. The book is very comprehensive and besides covering all the different sites for cancer as well as treatment, it is well illustrated and has many references.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cancer book, Jan 20 2008
By L. Petrich "detectivelp" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Everyone's Guide to Cancer Therapy; 4th Edition: How Cancer Is Diagnosed, Treated, and Managed Day to Day (Paperback)
Written by several doctors, which was referred to me by my surgeon, explains in laymans terms... covers all types of cancers and treatments. Worth buying. Dedicates a whole chapter to the thyroid.
