Recommended Books – a selection
Among the numerous books on cancer, I have deliberately chosen only a few. I have tried to find a balance in these sources between those therapies that have some kind of evidence-based results and those that are based on a different paradigm of health care that is consistent within itself. This list is short because you may find further references and resources within the general overview books listed.
