Cancer Handbook, The »

Nothing fills the heart with more dread than a diagnosis of cancer. Besides the worry about the poor chances of survival, there is also concern about the dangers of medicines orthodox 'cures'. What most oncologists dont 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.

Its 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 newsletter What Doctors Don't Tell You, youll discover the real evidence of when chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery work - and when they don't. Youll also find information about alternative treatments with solid scientific evidence.

The Cancer Handbook isn't just for cancer patients. Much of the invaluable advice on diet, including supplements, will maximize your chances of avoiding the plague of the Twentieth (and Twenty-First!) centuries.
