Colorectal Cancer is a condition whose successful treatment depends on how early it is detective. The American Cancer Society's Complete Guide To Colorectal Cancer is expertly compiled and edited by a team of knowledgeable and authoritative cancer experts, the result is a thorough guide for the non-specialist general reader to all aspects of colorectal cancer including its prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment options, complementary and alternative therapies, living well after cancer, caregiving, coping with practical matters, screening, decision making, and so much more. An authoritative 418-page compendium of up-to-date information that should be on the Health & Medicine reference shelf of every public library in the country, the American Cancer Society's Complete Guide To Colorectal Cancer is very strongly recommended for colorectal patients and their families.

This is a professionally written book, with lots of detailed info and references. It's not a very easy read for the layman, but if you're really interested in the subject, as a patient or a helper, this will cover most of your needs and questions. Some times it goes into more detail than I would need, but I just skip what I consider too much for my brain. Many thanks to the authors for such a comprehensive non-medical text.

This book is very comprehensive and thorough. It has been most helpful during the many phases of an unexpected journey.

This book is fantastic. I sent it to my son along with many other books on colon cancer. He said it was the best one he has seen. It is great to have such a good resource book.
