Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book (A Merloyd Lawrence Book) [Love MD, Susan M., Lindsey, Karen, Love, Elizabeth] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book (A Merloyd Lawrence Book)

Review: An indispensable guide for anyone dealing with breast cancer. Five informative stars! - Dr. Susan Love's book has been called "The Bible for women with breast cancer," and deservedly so. Its 704 pages are filled with a wealth of up-to-date material that is both comprehensive and easy to understand. First published in 1990 and updated every five years, this book has become the standard source of information about breast care and diseases of the breast, especially cancer. Any woman (or man) who has been newly diagnosed with breast cancer will benefit from this indispensable guide through every phase of the cancer journey. Beginning with a description of the healthy breast in Part One and the biology of cancer in Part Two, Parts Three and Four deal with screening, diagnosis, and decisions about treatment. Part Five describes the types of treatment, including surgery, radiation therapy, and systemic therapy (chemotherapy, hormones, targeted therapies, and complementary treatments). Part Six addresses problems after treatment, such as living with long-term side effects of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Part Seven discusses treatments for metastatic breast cancer. The book concludes with extensive notes, a glossary, and a helpful index. Dr. Love is a renowned surgeon, researcher, and Clinical Professor of Surgery at UCLA, but she writes in a style that is friendly, compassionate, and (above all) easy to understand. She is also a cancer survivor, which gives her words even more authenticity. I strongly recommend reading this book before meeting with your surgeon and/or cancer oncologist, so you'll understand what they're talking about, be ready to ask questions, and be equipped to advocate for yourself throughout your cancer journey. Armed with knowledge, you'll be prepared to make the best choices for you and your body. Just one suggestion: this book contains a number of illustrations, most of which were too small to see on my Kindle, even with a magnifying glass. You might consider purchasing the paperback edition for easier viewing. Aside from that difficulty, this book easily earns five stars from me. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Review: A must have book for breast cancer club members and care givers - As a recently diagnosed member of the breast cancer club, I wanted to learn everything I could about my condition. There are so many books out there, but after reading blogs and shopping reviews, I decided to order Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book. The book arrived on time, was well packaged and easy to open. The size of the book was a little daunting, but the book is divided into separate chapters and indexed well, so you can jump from topic to topic based on your interest. Or you can start from page 1 and go through until the end. I appreciate that Dr. Love shares her personal and professional experiences and that she also cites actual studies, facts and statistics. Her sense of humor really helps take the edge off of the serious and scary content that you are reading. I only wish that I had found this amazing book before my surgery and treatment instead of during my recovery time. I didn't know what questions to ask or had any idea of all the treatments options that were available to me. She provides detailed descriptions of the different types of breast cancers, procedures, treatments, diagnosis and how to read your lab/pathology reports. This book is a must have for breast cancer club members and care givers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best breast cancer reference available!
*by P***E on December 3, 2016*

I own the previous two editions and have just ordered this one. As a two time survivor, it has been an invaluable resource for all the questions not answered by the medical professionals who care for cancer patients, but that those patients lose sleep over. Dr. Love's explanations are thorough, detailed and complete, and cover all phases of discovery, diagnosis, treatment, recovery and even recurrence. Also included are the many benign conditions that affect the breast. The issues women face are varied, from choices to decision making to life planning to family matters, and few books address and respect all of these. Dr. Love does include them, and never "preaches" what women should and shouldn't think and do. She is a woman first and foremost, and her vast experience and sensitivity has taught her how other women and their needs vary. As a survivor myself and a professional who has worked with many patients going through the process, I cannot recommend this book highly enough!
