AnnotationThis practical guide deals with the nature and causes of cancer, overviews of the commonest forms of the disease, methods of detection, how it is treated, and how to live and cope with the symptoms and problems that may occur. The object of this book is to support information by the patient's doctor or medical team, and not to supplant or contradict such information, recommendations or treatments. The author stresses the necessity of accepting what medical advisers recommend in individual cases.
