Personal Recommendations
“Rogue Cells is a wonderful book that blends accessible knowledge for the lay person with scientific expertise. My mother died many years ago from lung cancer, and I wish I'd had this book then to help me understand what she was going through and help me be her best advocate.“
— Lauren Small, author and teacher
“Jones and McCormick have written a tome of hope and optimism about cancer that brings new understanding to everyone affected by this devastating disease. Their writing is a needed and critical update to the field.”
— David Agus, MD, Ellison Institute of Technology; author ofThe End of Illness
“Even though many of us will develop cancer or encounter it in a family member or close friend, it remains an enigma to most of us. Rogue Cells tackles how and why cancer develops, and how it can be detected, diagnosed, treated, and prevented, providing a practical guide to the disease.”
— William Nelson, director, Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
“As a person with almost no background knowledge about cancer, I found this book to be accessible and engaging, scientifically and clinically informative, and (perhaps unexpected for a book on cancer) fun! The many anecdotes and analogies helped clarify the important underlying scientific concepts, and helped educate me on the often long and important history of abnormal cell growth before a cancer is detected, the many types of cancer, the range of treatment approaches, and the promise of continued research and innovation."
