There are medical terms to learn, options to consider, and important decisions to make, all while trying to carry on with work, family, and life.

In plain, easy-to-understand language that illuminates all the facets of this disease, the authors draw on their professional experience and the most current scientific knowledge to • describe the risk factors for breast cancer; • explain the various tests used to detect cancer; • clarify the full range of treatment options, from surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation to newer combination therapies; • provide insight from experts in genetics, radiation oncology, and breast reconstruction; • present inspirational true stories of breast cancer survivors; and • simplify complex concepts with detailed graphics, tables, illustrations, and photographs.
