The organization of the recipes demonstrates the brilliance of the book and the authors' commitment to making it a useful tool. The recipes are set out in a standard way, by breakfast, lunch bowls entrees and the like. However, it is the two recipe indices that make the book really useful, listing the recipes by side effects and by symptoms…This is definitely a book to consider as a gift for anyone who has cancer, is recovering from cancer, or who is caring for someone suffering from this disease.
