About the Author

Greg Anderson was diagnosed with lung cancer in 1984. His surgeon gave him just 30 days to live. Refusing to accept the hopelessness of this diagnosis, Anderson went searching for survivors. What he found changed his health and his life and even the face of cancer survivorship in America.

5.0 out of 5 stars I have conquered cancer... today., November 5, 2002
By 
SA Meredith (Redmond, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Cancer Conqueror (Paperback)
This is a tremendous book... and I've read it 30 times. It's easy to read but filled with insights that helped me find a pathway to recovery. I have also purchased over 30 copies of this book for my friends... ALL of whom have been diagnosed with cancer in the last 8 years since my own diagnosis. Surviving cancer is a process... and with good strategies and good medical care people do it all the time. This book is a roadmap of much of that process.

5.0 out of 5 stars The only cancer book I recommend, September 29, 2005
This review is from: The Cancer Conqueror (Paperback)
13 years ago, I wondered through the self-help section of the book store. I looked for a book I could share with my husband who was recently diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor. While he was going through a series of painful spinal taps, I read him the book. It changed our lives. It's simple message does not preach or blame. It is a simple call to action that we have followed ever since we opened the book. For many years after I first read the book, my husband would page through it and read the affirmations (important messages) out loud.
Through the years, I have shared that book with others who were recently diagnosed. I keep on having to replace the book and we still try to live each day with meaning and purpose. In part, I attribute his survival to reading this book. It also works great for caregivers and family members. Cancer is a process, a journey and an opportunity to make your life what it needs to be. Get this book and enjoy it, get two books and share one with a friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Cancer Conquerer, February 1, 2010
By 
A Friend (El Dorado Hills, CA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Cancer Conqueror (Paperback)
A friend who is a cancer survivor of 10 or 15 years highly recommended this book to me for a family member. The survivor said this is a must read for anyone diagnosed with cancer. It was so helpful to her that she gave the book to those recently diagnosed that she called on as a cncer support contact. I read the entire book before I gave it to my family member and then bought one for myself. It is excellent advice for a positive uplifting way of living. I do believe, however, Greg Anderson has written a new book on the subject.
