Summary: Not for cancer recovery
Comment: This book was a huge disappointment to someone trying to take care of a cancer patient. It is, in essence, a re-hash of the familiar food pyramid guidelines that advise low-fat, low-protein and high-carbohydrate diets, organized around specific cancers. The scientific basis, if there is one, relates to epidemiologic studies of cancer risk. It might be helpful to someone who is trying to reduce their risk of various cancers by altering their dietary habits, but I doubt if this book has much more to offer than most of what has been published on that topic over the past several years. It has no scientific grounding for those who already have cancer, and may in fact suggest dietary patterns that would undermine the nutritional needs of those who are already in treatment, when fats and proteins may be friends. For someone undergoing cancer treatment, or in recovery from that ordeal, it has very little to offer that the hand-outs in your doctor's office don't already tell you.

Rating: 5
Summary: Best book of its kind
Comment: This is an excellent book. It allows cancer patients and their caregivers to understand why certain foods and eating styles may help or hurt. It also provides sample recipes to start the patient along in modifying his/her diet.

Rating: 5
Summary: A LIFETIME PLAN FOR WELLNESS.
Comment: GREAT RECIPES AND INFORMATION FROM YEARS OF RESEARCH. A "MUST READ" PUBLICATION FOR US ALL.
