The Definitive Guide to Cancer is exactly that, a guide. It is not a book with incoherent facts and figures but rather it explains and guides possible ways to improve your quality of life and ability to heal. It addresses specific cancers, and with each kind of cancer addressed it provides information on the causes, conventional treatment options, and always complementary approaches; like improving your lifestyle and diet with natural supplements. To me, the idea of being diagnosed with cancer of any kind is a tumultuous part of anyone’s life, and in seeking a guide to prevent and heal, the only thing i would ask for is literature that presents the facts as sincerely as this book does. The content of this book is reassuring because the authors present their knowledge and information in a straight forward and honest manor. When it comes to an integrative approach to prevention, treatment, and healing I couldn’t think of anything better to recommend!

I was fortunate to receive a copy of this excellent book. This recent publication is the most credible and helpful resource I have seen on the market regarding an integrative approach to the prevention and treatment of cancer. The authors have incorporated information from several fields of knowledge, including conventional medicine, to provide readers with an invaluable guide for an understanding of the different types of cancer, preventive measures that make sense, and when cancer occurs, the options available for treatment and healing.
There are numerouls books on cancer and it is unusual to find one that is as organized and clearly written as this book by Dr. Alschuler and Ms. Gazella. Furthermore, as a professional, knowledgeable about research methods and the importance of reliable and valid studies to support findings and recommendations, I found this book’s use of research more credible and useful than most publications on integrative approaches. The charts throughout the text add clarity to the material as well as the case studies and cited opinions from other professionals.
I give much credit to Dr. Alschuler and Ms. Gazella for the extraordinary effort they extended in writing this book. Professionals, families and individuals should have this book and use the material as a primary resource on their understanding of cancer, how the disease may be prevented, and when it occurs, what options are available for treatment and healing.

Invariably the information within this book is helpful and easy to understand. I find two features of this book, among many, as uniquely helpful. First is the book’s integration of ‘standard’ cancer treatment with ‘alternative’ treatments in a practical and evidence-based way. The alternative treatments are given and evaluated on the basis of the evidence supporting them. This allows people to make informed and reasonable decisions. There are so many wild claims about cancer treatment that abound on the internet and in books. It is very difficult to make sense of all of it. This book does that, while not telling you what to do. In this way the authors support their trustworthiness and integrity. The second feature I find particularly helpful is the access to understandable information. The book can be read from cover to cover, or as a reference. Invariably, if I have a question about a type of cancer, standard treatment options, supplements to take, what I can expect, etc. the information is easy to find in this one book.
Unfortunately, I have had the opportunity to give this book to several friends who are dealing with cancer. However, each person has come back to me later with praise for the book and gratitude that I gave it to them.
This is the one book to get.
