Media Reviews
A common-sense blueprint for healthy living.
--Chicago Tribune

Fills an important gap in our knowledge of how patients can contribute to their own care by supplementing conventional medical treatment. I recommend this book to anyone interested in preventive medicine and integrated, complementary approaches to patient care.
--John Mendelsohn, MD, president, MD Anderson Cancer Center, University of Texas

Resonating with cancer support communities . . . and recommended nationwide on internet message boards.
--Los Angeles Times

Life affirming . . . filled with practical advice that enables cancer patients to overcome their initial feelings of helplessness and to adopt a proactive attitude of survivorship.
--The Seattle Times

Servan-Schreiber's writing offers much more than science. It is full of passion . . . and compassion for his patients dealing with the emotional aspects of serious or terminal illness.
--Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Enormously compelling evidence and arguments for participating in our own health by supporting our deep natural capacity for healing. Everybody should read this book and enact its simple but potentially lifesaving recommendations.
--Jon Kabat-Zinn, PhD, author of Wherever You Go, There You Are

Anticancer's message is optimistic, the advice scientifically sound, and the prose highly readable.
--Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Presents a compelling combination of one doctor's story of his battle with cancer along with his research into how to fight the disease . . . Readable and moving.
--Body & Soul Magazine
