Publisher's Note This is an eye-opening account that shows how government regulatory agencies, scientists, and trade associations, as well as environmentalists, have managed to obscure the issues and prevent concerted action.
Written by a highly regarded historian of science, this meticulouly researched, eminently fair, and very provocative book attempts to answer the question: Why, given all the time and money spent on cancer research, can't we get consistent answers to the most fundamental questions about prevention and treatment?
Industry Reviews "'Cancer Wars' tells us a great deal about what is known medically about the disease, but it concentrates mainly on the way in which interest groups use or abuse that knowledge." New York Times Book Review - Daniel Callahan
