Editorial Reviews: Product Description Lung cancer is a scary disease, and the new patient is understandably confused and frightened. The future is uncertain, and it's filled with a dazzling array of unfamiliar medical and surgical terms and procedures. "Living With Lung Cancer" provides easy-to-understand information about diagnostic tests, treatments and their side effects, nutrition, the likely prognosis, even coping with emotions and paying the bills. By interviewing a large number of patients and their spouses, the authors learned the countless questions they have, including those they find difficult to ask in a doctor's office. The result is a book that helps people cope--with the disease, it treatments and, perhaps most of all, their nameless fears. It can help patients and their loved ones face the future with greater hope and confidence.

Customer Reviews: Not Very Informative August 10, 1999 79 out of 80 found this review helpful My mother was recently diagnosed, and I bought this book hoping it would be an informative summary of treatment methods, statistics, and coping strategies. Unfortunately, it is not. It contains pretty much the same general information that can be found on the American Cancer Society web site, and I would recommend the National Cancer Institute's PDQ service for much more comprehensive clinical information. Also, my mother's oncologist provided several pamphlets that were just as good or better on treatment side effects and coping strategies. As far as I can tell, this book's main merit is its case studies, all of which have positive outcomes. These may give patients more hope. However, the price of the book is a little steep if that's all one gets from it. I would recommend that patients and families do their own research: it's more empowering, it's free, and the information is better.
