This book was great!

Many books denounce chemotherapy, but few go into such thorough detail, while remaining rational and acknowledging in equal detail the very few cancers where chemo IS effective.

It was easy enough to understand for a lay person, but technical enough for a serious researcher.

I don’t think I’ve seen a more fair appraisal of the subject.

Though this book is over 20 years old, it is still absolutely relevant. There have been no major improvements in chemo during this time, and most current therapies are still using the same drugs or drug types as decades ago - only the combinations have changed. If you read this book you’ll understand why combining chemo doesn’t make it better.

I recommend this book. Even if you never get cancer, it is almost certain that someone close to you will be diagnosed. If you’re looking for a book to recommend to them to help them make an informed decision, this is a great start.
