This review is from: 100 Q&A About Liver Cancer (100 Questions & Answers about) (Paperback)

I bought this book for my Mom who had been diagnosed with live cancer. What the doctors were not telling her, this book does. It is a good book for the basic education about liver cancer and was helpful for her as she sought to learn about her disease.
