Summary: "best one source of information"
If you have cancer or know someone with cancer and you only buy one book to help keep you healthy, this is the book.
Loaded with nutritional information pitched at just the right level to help you understand why you need particular nutrients at particular times and what doses. My only gripe. My book supplied by AMAZON was not quality checked and was posted to Australia with 8 pairs of blank pages starting at 162, 166, 170,174,178,182,186,190 so I have missed important information in Chapter 14 on recipes. I am sure this is not the only book in the print run with this blank page problem. I wonder what AMAZON will do about this problem.
Other than this problem, the book is a mine of useful, applicable information and explanations. BUY IT!
