Cancer Rehabilitation: Principles and Practice Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a 33 year survivor of Hodgkins Disease I purchased this book as a resource to help my physicians understand the late effects I might be experiencing and the best ways to treat those effects. It is a GREAT, very comprehensive aid, written more for health care professionals but there is enough in there for the lay person to make it worthwhile.
