4.0 out of 5 stars
Very interesting examination of commonalities in regressions,
This review is from: Spontaneous Regression: Cancer And The Immune System (Paperback)
"Spontaneous Regression" is a summary of various cases of spontaneous regression and research into what exactly occurred. It includes some interesting information on an apparent link between a particular infectious agent and cancer regression after having been infected. While it was interesting reading I tended to think of it as just another collection of questionable regressions (perhaps the patient was misdiagnosed to begin with, etc.) until I checked on the background of the author. After realizing that he is an executive at a biotechnology industry and a director of a company that develops antibody-based cancer drugs as well as a past director of another company that produces therapeutic cancer vaccines it became obvious that he is speaking from a position of authority. From this vantage point it suddenly became more interesting and turned out to be a very good read for anyone who is interested in spontaneous regression in cancer cases.

Cancer for the non-scientist,
By Lindsey Chan (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spontaneous Regression: Cancer And The Immune System (Paperback)
This book is highly recommended for both science and non-science readers. Even though I am not a science person, I was still very interested in the inner workings and details of cancer. This book is extremely clear and well documented, explaining case studies of cancer patients and their spontaneous recovery. After reading this book, I now have a clear idea for alternative treatments for cancer and the interworkings of the immune system.
