by Carolyn Faulder (Author)
Britain has the highest incidence of breast cancer in the world and the number of women dying from the disease - more than 15,000 every year - is rising by one per cent annually. By the year 2000, lung cancer is predicted to overtake breast cancer as the major premature killer of British women. It has already happened in Scotland. Cervical cancer kills 2000 women unnecessarily every year. This book shows how you can make informed choices and communicate better with your doctor. It considers the place of alternative therapies in a holistic spectrum of care and provides a rich resource list of support groups and other useful organizations. Carolyn Faulder has also written Breast Cancer and Whose Body Is It? .
