The Thinking Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer is intended to empower patients go beyond the one-size-fits-all "standard of care"and make the decisions that are best for themselves and their loved ones. Because she has a research background, Dr. Maker was able to find a great deal of information that is not commonly known to patients. This information helped her tremendously, and it can help you. This is thebook she wished she had when she needed it.
