About this title

Synopsis

The illustrated step-by-step techniques of a noted doctor, now for use at home by all women over the age of 20. How to replace worry with confidence during a monthly three-part ten-minute inspection that can dramatically reduce the incidence of death from breast cancer.

"There is hardly a female in America past the age of puberty who has not heard that early detection could save her life," points out the New York Times, while the Kirkus Review announces, "Brief and to the point, this is one book that could convince dilatory women to begin a program of self-examination." 57,000 copies in print.

From the Back Cover

. . . A life-saving little book on Breast Self-Examination.

--Dr. Edward F. Lewison, Chief, Breast Clinic, Johns Hopkins Hospital

"A concise, valuable book that will comfort as well as inform."

--Publishers Weekly

Dr. Milan is "straightforward and sympathetic. His recommended procedure requires only a large mirror and ten minutes; small price for large benefit."

--Kirkus Review

A graduate of Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, he has practiced his specialty of obstetrics and gynecology for the past thirty years.
