1 Not Very Informative
My mother was recently diagnosed, and I bought this book hoping it would be an informative summary of treatment methods, statistics, and coping strategies. Unfortunately, it is not. It contains pretty much the same general information that can be found on the American Cancer Society web site, and I would recommend the National Cancer Institute's PDQ service for much more comprehensive clinical information. Also, my mother's oncologist provided several pamphlets that were just as good or better on treatment side effects and coping strategies. As far as I can tell, this book's main merit is its case studies, all of which have positive outcomes. These may give patients more hope. However, the price of the book is a little steep if that's all one gets from it. I would recommend that patients and families do their own research: it's more empowering, it's free, and the information is better.

I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.

		-- Publilius Syrus





The eye is a menace to clear sight, the ear is a menace to subtle hearing,

the mind is a menace to wisdom, every organ of the senses is a menace to its

own capacity. ...  Fuss, the god of the Southern Ocean, and Fret, the god

of the Northern Ocean, happened once to meet in the realm of Chaos, the god

of the center.  Chaos treated them very handsomely and they discussed together

what they could do to repay his kindness.  They had noticed that, whereas

everyone else had seven apertures, for sight, hearing, eating, breathing and

so on, Chaos had none.  So they decided to make the experiment of boring holes

in him.  Every day they bored a hole, and on the seventh day, Chaos died.
