The cancer handbook

Nothing fills the heart with more dread than a diagnosis of cancer. Besides the worry about the poor chances of survival, there is also worry about the dangers of most of medicine's orthodox "cures". What most oncologists don't tell you is that no cancer incurable 25 years ago is curable today, or for the most common cancers that kill 90 percent of patients today, chemotherapy is no better than snake oil. It's also difficult, if not impossible, to ferret out reliable information about genuine alternatives that work. In no area of medicine have alternative ideas been more stifled than with cancer, even though a number have been the subject of some properly designed laboratory and clinical research. In this unique book, compiled by the editors of the bestselling newletter What Doctors Don't Tell You, you'll discover the real evidence of when chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery work -- and when they don't. You'll also find information about alternative treatments with solid scientific evidence. Lynne McTaggart is a British author and Editor for the bestselling U.K. newsletter What Doctors Don't Tell You.
