Cancer treatment has enjoyed half a century of healthy development,
relying mainly on surgery, cytotoxic therapy and radiation.
Achievements and successes are well reflected in the longer
survival period and better quality of life. Nonetheless, cancer
still spreads locally, recurs, metastasizes and remains one of the
top killers.Instead of concentrating on cancer removal, it has
become obvious that supportive measures are also important. These
include the means to improve quality of life during treatment and
to contain tumor growth. To this end, herbal medicine appears to
offer holistic support via as yet unknown pathways.This volume
reveals the practice of cancer treatment using herbs from all over
the world, including China, India and Japan. It provides
comprehensive information about the herbs commonly used, the logic
of using the herbs, some of the mechanisms of action and other
means of palliative treatment. While cancer victims have a thirst
for choosing their own supplementary treatment, health providers
have a duty to explain to them the justifications and the options.
