Description
Cancer in all its forms is probably the most feared and misunderstood disease in Western society. The authors of this book have set out to dispel some of the fears that surround cancer by providing realistic and accessible information on the nature of the various cancers, their diagnosis, and treatment. Fully up to date, the book includes the latest scientific information on the understanding of cancer and new techniques for diagnosis and treatments, including the emotional needs of cancer patients and the role of complementary medicine. The authors have also addressed questions that patients may find difficult to ask, as well as more commonly asked questions, and provide sympathetic and practical advice for suffers. This book is essential reading for all those who want to know more about the causes and treatments of cancer today.
