Reader Reviews
As a physician, I have and will continue to recommend this book to anyone who is newly diagnosed with cancer. This book is readable and yet so thorough in its scientific research. This should be the standard for all healthcare-consumer books. Medicine can no longer afford to ignore Integrative Healthcare offerings. It is informative and empowering. You want this on your shelf at home because someone you know and love will one day NEED this.
