Cancer: The Complete Recovery Guide: Everything That Everyone Should Know About Cancer And How To Recover From It

This 2008 edition has now been updated - and very substantially enlarged (it is 40% bigger) - and is now available in eight short books called the Cancer: Complete Recovery Guide series.

There are dozens of cures for cancer. When Jonathan's wife, Bernadette, was diagnosed with cancer, Jonathan realised he knew nothing about the disease. "What I needed was a sane, personal, intelligent and critical voice that could lead me through these contending beliefs; that could put both sides of the case and point up the limitations of any arguments there might be. But I never found this voice. So, I have taken it upon myself to provide this voice for others. This then is the book I wish I had had at hand when Bern was diagnosed with cancer." "Chamberlain has a voice that is at once humble and powerful. I like writers that cut to the chase, and then do not skimp on the practical details... and I really like his attitude. He speaks from the heart, but clearly wants you to use your head. Good combination." - Andrew Saul, PhD, Doctor Yourself Website "Thank you for the organization of a fragmented body of information. This book is now the reference book on alternative treatments." - Jim Cole "I now can recommend your book. as 'the' book to read. You have covered just about everything that I have read, and it took me over twenty books and innumerable downloads to do it. The book is more precious than gold!" - Richard Thompson, cancer patient "This book tells me everything I want to know. Why didn't my doctor tell me this?" - Rev. Bill Newbern

When Jonathan Chamberlain's daughter was born with Down Syndrome (she was later to suffer brain damage when a heart operation went wrong, leaving her blind, epileptic and so profoundly handicapped that she could not even sit up by herself) he founded two charities for handicapped children - The Hong Kong Down Syndrome Association and Mental Handicap Network China. So when his wife, Bernadette, was diagnosed with cancer, he brought his proactive instincts to bear to this new challenge.

The result was his first cancer book, Fighting Cancer: A Survival Guide. When this went out of print he re-organised the information and substantially updated it. Cancer: The Complete Recovery Guide was the result. This was followed shortly after by Cancer Recovery Guide: 15 Alternative and Complementary Strategies for Restoring Health.

His own personal story about the tragedy of his daughter and then his wife is described in his memoir, Wordjazz for Stevie, which can be downloaded free of charge from his website.

Jonathan grew up in Ireland but lived most of his life in Hong Kong. He now lives in Brighton, England.
