Breast Cancer: A Guide for Every Woman

This book, written by two leading medical experts and a medical journalist, gives full and up-to-date information about all aspects of breast cancer. Intended as a guide for all women, it should be particularly useful for those who have been diagnosed, or are at risk for breast cancer. It explains in non-technical language early symptoms, tests and treatment options, and how to cope with the disease and its treatment. The authors explain all these different aspects of the disease clearly and with minimal use of jargon, while still providing detailed information about diagnosis, treatment, and care afterwards. They also explain what we now know about the causes of breast cancer - what factors put you at greater risk of developing breast cancer and what factors make it less likely that you will ever develop it.
