Book Reviews of Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book:4th Edition 2005
Book Review: The one book to get
Summary: 5 Stars
Of all the books on this delicate subject this is the one to get.
Not a lot of fluff, just basic scientific data in an easy to read format.
Book Review: a user's view
Summary: 5 Stars
I have several friends with breast cancer and this has been a very valuable resource for us.Book Review: Read This Book Before You Need It
Summary: 4 Stars
This book has massive amounts of important information, though in places is a bit technical for the layperson. That being said, my only lament was that I hadn't read it prior to my diagnosis of breast cancer. Since one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, this is a book that all women should read; once there's a diagnosis of breast cancer, things go way too fast for thoughtfully reading such a vast resource. Though there are books that deal with the aftermath realities of day to day living and the necessities of things like lots of pillows, etc. I do wish this book had touched on some of the practical preparations that could be made prior to surgery. There's a lot to be said for this book, it contains a wealth of information; I just wish I'd read it a year ago.Book Review: Doctor Recommended
Summary: 4 Stars
Recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer, I found it to help me "wrap my head around" all the information, and make informed choices regarding my care. I personally like that it doesn't read as if you are an idiot without going so far over the top that you feel as if you are reading a text book. However, if you are recently diagnosed, don't read it cover to cover! Take it step by step. Read, talk to your doctors, re-read... otherwise you will be more likely to feel overwhelmed, and you already have enough to deal with.Book Review: i know a better book
Summary: 4 Stars
