Dr. Mark Boguski, Dr. Michele Berman, David Tabatsky - Reimagining Women's Cancers
With today being World Breast Cancer Research Day, we're revisiting this "From the Vault" episode of Big Blend Radio featuring Dr. Mark Boguski and Dr. Michele Berman, along with writer and editor David Tabatsky, authors of “Reimagining Women's Cancers: The Power of Celebrity and Public Awareness in Changing Cancer Outcomes.”
Whether readers are currently patients or consumers wanting to be better informed, Reimagining Women’s Cancers exemplifies that information is empowering. Reading about a famous person coping with cancer can not only be inspiring, it can save a life. In this first book of their Reimagining Cancer series, doctors Mark Boguski and Michele Berman team with writer David Tabatsky to provide celebrity stories focusing on cancer of the breasts, ovaries, uterus, cervix, vagina and vulva.
To provide readers with critical information to help them manage, cope, and recover from illness, "Reimagining Women’s Cancers" is written in an easy-to-read style and format. Each chapter begins with basic anatomy concerning each cancer, followed by an overview of how we view a particular cancer today. The chapters flow easily into an explanation of signs, symptoms, diagnoses, scientific information and guidelines, and end on comprehensive surveys for treatments and prevention. Woven throughout are stories, both medical and anecdotal, from women such as Angelina Jolie, Joan Lunden, Melissa Etheridge, Sandra Lee, Rita Wilson, Christina Applegate, and Suzanne Somers.
