Editorial Reviews

Review
"...it asks and answers the questions that any breast cancer patient needs to know." -- Jennifer Ryan, News and Public Service Director, Q102FM, Philadelphia, PA

"I am sure [this] book will provide a source of comfort and reassurance for multitudes of breast cancer patients." -- Jimmy Dintino

"[Courage To Conquer] is a fascinating...remarkable book." -- Joel Posner, M.D., Chairman, Department of Geriatrics and Director of the Center for Continuing Health, Medical College of Pennsylvania

Courage To Conquer is an interesting, well written book that will show patients with breast cancer that they are not alone and that they can move beyond their diagnosis. The women in this book are inspiring and motivating. I am recommending Courage To Conquer to all of my patients with breast cancer. -- Alexander Ricciuti, M.D.

I bought Courage To Conquer right after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. As soon as I got it I read it from cover to cover. I couldn't put it down. It really helped me get through the initial stages of my diagnosis and treatment. -- B.S., breast cancer patient

Product Description
Courage To Conquer: Breast Cancer Survivors Share Their Personal Stories is a collection of interviews with fifteen breast cancer survivors. The women interviewed discuss,in depth, topics related to breast cancer, such as how to cope with diagnosis and treatment, how to talk to children about breast cancer, fertility and sexuality after breast cancer, ways to improve health care for African American women, how the medical community can improve its treatment of breast cancer patients, and the importance of spirituality in dealing with illness. The interviews are arranged by age from youngest age at diagnosis to oldest. At the beginning of each is a synopsis of the woman's story, which includes available details of her medical history, and some of the topics she has talked about in her interview. At the end of the book are a glossary and list of reading materials and resources based on the suggestions and experiences of the women interviewed. Both the author's and publisher's proceeds are going to breast cancer research.
