  This volume presents every face of cancer, its prevention and treatment for all sufferers and their families. An opening section discusses the background to the disease, its incidence worldwide, the hidden signs and warnings and the first visit to the A chapter on tests for each type of cancer and a glossary of terms is followed with advice on what to do if the results are positive. Separate sections cover cancer in children and the care of the terminally ill. The book also sets out the facts about surgery and its alternatives - nutrition, relaxation and meditation, religion, chemotherapy and radiography - what they do and whether they work. Case histories are used throughout the text to show that cancer does not mean life cannot go on.
