With more than fifty years' experience as a cancer physician, Dr Philip A. Salem believes that knowledge alone is not enough when battling the disease.

This book, written with passion and precision, is intended to empower patients, helping them to receive the best possible care. Expertly taking patients through each part of the treatment process, starting with diagnosis - and supplemented throughout with insightful patient stories - Defeating Cancer will give strength to anyone affected by the condition.
