Description
The book How to Deal with Cancer focuses on primary prevention in its first part. The second extensive section is dedicated to early recognition (secondary prevention) and a detailed description of new, improved diagnostic methods and treatment procedures. The third part presents and describes selected types of cancer in detail. In addition, you will find an extensive glossary explaining the most important professional terms. Why a book about cancer? Cancer, in all its manifestations and forms, is considered incurable in most cases and is the second leading cause of death in Central Europe, right after cardiovascular diseases. At least that is the widely held belief, which is only partially correct and accurate. Today, nearly four out of ten patients are cured. Thanks to significant advances in cancer diagnosis, therapy, and subsequent care, there has been tremendous development in the last thirty years or so. The book concludes with useful contacts and a practical index.
