Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A must have book! Comment: This book is a life-saver, it informs and leads you to a much clearer understanding of what is going on in your body. I have returned to this book time and again as my diagnosis has taken many twists and turns. Everything the book has said has turned out to be correct and prevents surprises. The doctors prepare all the questions you need to ask - I cannot recommend it highly enough. Customer Rating: Summary: The 1st book to pick up for anyone who is newly diagnosed Comment: I bought this book recently after my girlfriend was diagnosed with breast cancer. THE BREAST CANCER SURVIVAL MANUAL is informative and easy to read. I feel empowered understanding the disease as well as the options my friend has with the up-to-date method of treatment. I highly recommend this book to anyone, including friends or family members of those who have just been diagnosed with breast cancer. It also should be the first book to read for anyone who wants to be informed about breast cancer and the current treatment. Customer Rating: Summary: handy-dandy guide Comment: Some people may be daunted by the size and detail of Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book, the current bible on breast cancer, and want instead a quick, clear, handy-dandy smaller guide to the issues. This may well be the book for them. John Link is an oncologist at the Memorial Care Breast Centers at Long Beach Memorial and there's a touch of boosterism for his clinic, but that's OK. I'm more bothered by the fact that he deals in authoritative pronouncements without a single reference to the underlying research. These things aside, there's a lot to like. A better explanation of your pathologist's report than I found in Love, an excellent chapter on Diet, Exercise, Herbs and Vitamins, and the only explanation I've encountered so far as to why chemo makes your hair fall out. A warning, which also applies to Love's book: those tumors depicted in the chapter on staging (p. 46) are not drawn to scale - they're tinier. But there is an earlier figure on p.23 that shows the true size of a "1 centimeter" tumor. Remember too, this book is for beginning breast cancer; it has relatively little to say about recurrences and metastases. Will appeal to: most patients and family supporters, either those with little patience for protracted reading, or those who just want to hear a second voice. Customer Rating: Summary: Concise, easy to understand, up to date information. Comment: The information in this book gave me the knowledge to understand what was before me; my options, new procedures, and the long term outlook. It enabled me to question my doctors and understand what they were proposing. Specific info on new techniques (sentinel node biopsy) led me to question my doctor about it and ultimately seek it out for myself. Having read Susan Loves book ( which is also excellent) I would have to say that Dr. Links book is a better starting place for information and understanding. It is written in a manner and style that is easy to read, understand, and use as a catalyst in planning what to do after you get the diagnosis. Dr. Link also gives you the information necessary to understand the pathology/biopsy reports. In short, Dr. Link gives women the power to be in control and take charge of their treatment options. Customer Rating: Summary: This should be REQUIRED reading for women. Comment: A breast cancer diagnosis puts a woman's life into a free-fall. Dr. Link explains how to take charge of a situation over which you feel you have no control. He has offered a concise, up-to-date compilation of information necessary for a pro-active role in breast cancer treatment. He lets women know in understandable language that there are options available and helps sort throught the facts in order to make intelligent, informed decisions. I discovered Dr. Link's book AFTER I had been diagnosed and had already received a second opinion on my own. He helped me sort throught the maze of chemotherapy treatments, and gave me the confidence I needed to make the right choices for me. I was so impressed with his book that I have donated copies to our local hospital to be given to women at the time of initial diagnosis. If you are facing this nightmare of a journey, take this book with you...
