This collection of essays, which varies in writing style and content, includes personal stories, practical suggestions, and political action plans. Topics cover the feminist anticancer movement, the subtle and not-so-subtle societal pressure to maintain the image of a two-breasted woman following mastectomy, alternative therapies, lesbian cancer projects, refutations of cancer myths, and the need for equitable access to treatment regardless of race, age, and socioeconomic status. Although written from an unabashedly feminist viewpoint, these essays provide much food for thought, touch the heart, and supply useful information and advice on making decisions regarding healthcare.
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
