Book DescriptionPRODUCT DESCRIPTION Be a Survivor - Your Guide to Breast Cancer Treatment – book with DVD - 3rd ed. By Vladimir Lange, MD A unique book-with-DVD combination that informs and empowers Dr. Vladimir Lange is a Harvard Medical Schooltrained physician, nationally recognized for patient education programs. When his wife, also a physician, was diagnosed with breast cancer, both were overwhelmed by the complexity of the information they had to process. Be a Survivor was inspired by their desire to make the journey easier for others. Be a Survivor is the "must read" book for every woman diagnosed with breast cancer, and for those who care for her. The book is: COMPLETE – it covers all aspects of the disease – from diagnosis, to breast reconstruction, conventional and complementary therapies, and life after cancer. It also includes a chapter for the woman’s husband or partner. ACCURATE – rather than reflecting a single specialist’s point of view, the book is based on the combined experience and wisdom of 28 experts in various fields. REASSURING – written with compassion and understanding, the book also includes candid stories by survivors and their partners. USER-FRIENDLY – hundreds of color photos, graphics and diagrams help clarify important concepts. UP-TO-DATE – the book covers the very latest developments, including brachytherapy, perforator flaps, skin sparing mastectomy and much more. UNIQUE – Be a Survivor is the ONLY book on breast cancer that comes with a DVD, so the reader can see videos of procedures, hear survivors’ stories, and enjoy the animated 3-D graphics. See the DVD for a clear overview. Read the book for additional details. Use both as a valuable source of information that will help you assume an active role in your treatment and recovery. \\\ This Book Will Help You
