Editorial Reviews for Alternatives in Cancer Therapy: The Complete Guide to Alternative Treatments
|
|
Alternatives in Cancer Therapy offers help for all patients coping with cancer. The therapies discussed in this book are primarily non-toxic, have few, if any, side effects, and tend to strengthen the immune system. They can be used as supplemental regimens that help maximize the effectiveness of traditional therapies such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Patients have a right to know all of their treatment options, and Dr. Ross Pelton presents dozens of choices, including: * Shark Cartilage
* Gerson Therapy
* Mistletoe
* Isoprinosine
* Laetrile
* Selenium
* Beta-Carotene
* Hydrogen Peroxide
* Vitamins C and E
* The Hoxsey Treatment Non-traditional therapies can enhance the quality of life, and improve overall health while treating the disease. Alternatives in Cancer Therapy provides information on the research, efficacy, potential side effects, and availability of each treatment.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: What everybody should know
Comment: I think that this book should be translated to every language and be read by all people concerned, doctors and patients alike. This book gives you an insight into what really goes on and what should go on...
Customer Rating: 
Summary: completely outdated
Comment: Not only is the information old, it's not very comprehensive. If you can get hold of Ron Falcone's Complete Guide To Alternative Cancer Therapies (also outdated but technically, very informative and provides an excellent background into key alternative therapies), do so. From a historical standpoint, Falcone's work is an excellent and scholarly introduction to the subject.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Interesting, but outdated
Comment: Cancer therapy is a rapidly moving target. New alternatives are introduced each day. This book written in 1994 has very little of the newer alternatives. I found it to be of little use in finding some new alternative.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A too-balanced review
Comment: Compared to other books like David Bognar's "Cancer: Increasing Your Odds for Survival" and Michael Lerner's classic and profound "Choices in Healing," this book is weak indeed. It is nothing more than a laundry list of a variety of alternative therapies, all presented with a dry and straight-faced summarization. Had I not read other and better books on the same subject, I would have walked away from this volume certainly no wiser and probably more confused about non-traditional cancer treatments. A real disappointment to me as a recovering cancer patient trying to avoid recurrence. If you are looking for the definitive work on the subject, put your money elsewhere.
Customer Rating:
Summary: a balanced approach
Comment: When you look down the list of these supplements, some seem eerie
because we have attached them to radical, non traditional treatments
that people used to go to back alleys in order to obtain. Now,
however, the blended and supplemental approach to cancer treatment has
make it more acceptable for patients to access additional treatments
instead of opting for one or the other....I think Pelton's book is a
very good start.
