So much of cancer today is the result of environmental contaminants and high-risk lifestyles -- including diets. The Strang Cancer Prevention Center Cookbook: A Complete Nutrition And Lifestyle Plan To Dramatically Lower Your Cancer Risk is the collaborative effort of Laura Pensiero (dietitian, nutrition educator, restaurant owner, and graduate of the French Culinary Institute in New York); Michael Osborne (President of the Strang Cancer Prevention Center and faculty professor at Cornell University Medical College); and Susan Oliveria (faculty member at Strang, Cornell University Medical College, and Memorial Sloan Kettering). A complete and very highly recommended single volume course of information and instruction, readers will learn how the phytochemicals in certain foods; how to make delicious eating plans an integral part of a cancer-prevention regimen; as well as lifestyle modifications designed to minimize the risk of cancer. Enhanced with more than one hundred recipes drawn from world-renowned restaurants, The Strang Cancer Prevention Center Cookbook reveals how a healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle can keep us physically fit and cancer-free.

I have read a lot of nutrition and health related books. This one ranks very high on quality and quantity of good information included in the book. I highly recommend it to others.

Wonderful recipes with a huge variety of foods (fish, meats, desserts, vegetarian, etc.) and also a large section with great advice on lowering your cancer risk (antioxidants, vitamins, etc.). Highly recommended for all cooks!

Thank you for your prompt and professional service in purchasing this product. Your site listed the condition of the book and it arrived exactly as you said it would.

I was disappointed with the book because the recipes were not fully illustrated with color photos. The cover of my book did not even look like the one shown here. The information about cancer was useful but I bought it more for the recipes and was very disappointed that it was not illustrated like a real cookbook. Misleading cover on the internet.
