About this product

Product Information

Part memoir, part science, this book is the story of the author's father and ultimately the death of an old man, interweaved with the history of the discovery of cancer, its treatment and - increasingly now - its prevention. It is the story of heroic science from the 18th century, when the disease was first recognised, to the huge research projects around the world that have enormously extended the life expectancy of people with cancer. The mere use of the 'c' word is enough to terrify people - but as the book will show, that is about the change, as genetics and effective treatments become better and better understood. As the author emphasises, this is a positive book, and the narrative is full of hope. Uniquely comprehensive, One in Three's long view allows the reader to understand the science that has surrounded cancer as it has developed; it gives the reader insights into its biology and its treatment. One-third of us will contract cancer, and One in Three is a personal and authoritative book which will help everyone to understand it without blind terror.
