Dismantling Cancer by Francisco Contreras, M.D.

Dr. Contreras leads a team of physicians who address the various root causes of cancer in a multi-faceted approach to treatment, aimed at dismantling cancer.

Reflections of the Breast by Francis Arena and Tanya Bastianich Manuali

This is not another cancer book. It is the triumph of the human experience. It is the story of everywoman. It is the incredible insight and brilliance of countless artists who told the story of all those who have suffered from this disease and documented and possibly foretold the development of the therapies that we have today. It tells a story not just in words like other books but uses the images of artists like Michaelangelo, Rubens, Raphael, Eakins and the modern day artist who are also the patients and the survivors.

Intimacy After Breast Cancer by Gina Maisano

As a breast cancer survivor, the author honestly discusses the sensitive issues of self-esteem, body image, and sexuality to help you become the total woman you still are.

The Red Devil by Katherine Russell Rich    

The Red Devil is a bold, wickedly funny tale of illness, joy, and the improbable triumph of love in the midst of despair.

Designed for cancer patients and their families, these easy-to-follow recipes focus on foods best tolerated and those to ease the symptoms during treatment. With an oncologist's chapter introduction, doctor's notes, menu planning, tips, nutritional analysis, diabetic exchanges, the book serves as a guide for nutrition before, during, and after cancer treatment.
