About Breast Cancer: Real Questions, Real Answers

From the Publisher "The most thorough patient-oriented [book] that I have ever seen. This book will be valuable to the literate, educated and medically unsophisticated population. . . . There is a good deal of medical and scientific terminology that is conveyed to the patient." —George P. Canellos, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Center, Harvard Medical School "Almost every question I’ve ever been asked is answered in a clear and thoughtful manner in this excellent resource. I recommend it as important support for patients navigating this difficult journey." —Clifford Hudis, MD, Chief of Breast Cancer Medicine Service, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center "This wonderful book does exactly what it says: provides the real answers to the many important questions asked by our breast cancer patients." —Brian-Leyland Jones, MD, Director, McGill Comprehensive Cancer Center, Montreal "This book provides an accurate and extremely clear approach to complex issues every woman with a breast cancer diagnosis should know. Patients, family members and loved ones will find Dr. Chan's book empowering, and a resource to go back to frequently on their journey to recovery." —Francisco J. Esteva, MD, PhD, Director, Breast Cancer Translational Research Laboratory, The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center "Dr. Chan’s book is a thoughtful, comprehensive resource for the patient who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. He has been able to simplify, very succinctly, answers to the most complex questions raised by one facing this disease and its treatment. I would recommend this book, without hesitation, to breast cancer patients, who often feel lost in an abyss of complex medical information." —Linnea I. Chap, MD, Co-Director, Revlon/UCLA Breast Center, UCLA/Geffen School of Medicine "Dr. David Chan is a well respected, well trained, and inspirational medical oncologist. In his twenty years of clinical practice, breast cancer patients have asked him important questions about their disease and treatment. Dr. Chan has synthesized these questions and their answers in an easily read format. Most patients, in the whirlwind and tumult surrounding their breast cancer diagnosis, will find this book a useful tool for reflection and study. Their spouses and other loved ones are also likely to find David’s book helpful" —Douglas W. Blayney, MD, Professor, Department of Internal Medicine, Medical Director, Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Michigan Medical School Product Description Breast Cancer: Real Questions, Real Answers is an outgrowth of Dr. David Chan's more than 20 years in private oncology practice. Inspired by his patients—who courageously face their illness but often feel fearful, confused about their options, and full of questions—Dr. Chan's book is uniquely structured as a Question and Answer between patient and doctor. It provides readers with an easily navigated, completely current resource for all of their queries. Poised to become the new must-read for breast cancer patients, this book offers easily digestible information by reviewing and exploring the causes of breast cancer, outlining the core basics of breast cancer therapy, explaining how breast cancer survival is influenced by lifestyle, and much more. Dr. Chan's surefooted, compassionate tone offers reassurance throughout, as do the stories of his many patients, which give readers a firsthand glimpse at what they may face down the road, all from a survivor's point of view. Complete with a glossary of important terms and an appendix of useful resources, Breast Cancer: Real Questions, Real Answers is a must for every breast cancer patient seeking information that will guide her through her struggle toward a triumphant recovery.
