Cancer: The Facts (Facts)

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This book has been specially written for the interested layman, for the patient desiring greater information about their cancer, and also to inform relatives and friends of sufferers. Early chapters give an understanding of the process of cancer and current thinking about investigation and treatment, while later chapters deal with specific cancers. The importance of psychological support and the place of complementary medicine are also examined. This book is intended as an easy read which will inform and so reduce the fear surrounding the not so easy topic of cancer.
