About this title

Synopsis

Aimed at the specific needs of African Americans, this book is both a complete medical guide and a human exploration of the emotional aspects of cancer. African Americans have different types of cancers in greater proportions than other races do and often have diminished access to health care and treatment. Topics include the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of over 20 types of cancer, how to work with the health-care system, and the importance of both diet and faith to treatment. Personal stories illustrate the human aspects of the disease, including the joy of successful treatment and the distress when the outcome is death.
