Synopsis Dr. David Servan-Schreiber did not believe his oncologist when, after battling cancer through chemo and surgery, he was told there was nothing he could do to keep the disease from coming back. In this book he presents the results of his research into the correlations between risk of relapse and changes in diet and other health habits, as well as how hormonal and environmental factors participate in the overall equation. In addition to advocating smart decisions in the these areas, the professor of psychiatry points out that mental health can also play a role in healing--that positive thoughts and inner calm have been shown to go hand in hand with cancers staying in remission.
