This review is from: Ask the Doctor: Breast Cancer (Ask the Doctor Series) (Paperback)
The authors provide very clear, concise explanations of different types of breast cancer and treatment options for each. This seems like a very good introduction for anyone trying to learn more about this disease.

Life has these ironies.....your get the test results back, you dont know fear as this before. You go to the bookstore, the libary, anything to find comfort. The nights alone, ahead, you must find comfort, instead of fear. Michael Bokulich, boy of my childhood dreams. He's medical writer, father of four, lives in outside Philadelphia....and the book you buy, he is one of the authors. I"m okay, i fight things hard, "cuz life is worth living. You had some hand and thought to comfort me during my brush with fear. Thanks Michael. You do good work. Arlean Chicovic-Christman
