Summary: Helpful but basic
Comment: I found this helpful but pretty basic. I had already learned most of the book contents by surfing the net and going to responsible medical sites (e.g., OncologyChannel, Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, etc). I bought it primarily as a reference to keep on hand as my mother goes through treatment for ovarian cancer. I was able to skip about half the book as it was so elementary, but others may find that information more of a revelation and useful. I do think it will be a helpful reference to have at my fingertips as time progresses.
