Robert Nagourney felt like he had made a terrible mistake. Many years ago, as an oncology fellow, his lifelong desire to be a healer and a physician had been replaced by his role as an administrator of toxic, ineffective chemotherapies. His patients weren't only dying; he was poisoning them. He resolved that the remainder of his career would be dedicated to finding better, innovative ways to treat cancer. By rethinking what cancer is and how it behaves, Dr Nagourney has developed a smarter, more effective way to treat cancer patients. In this book he describes the scientific rationale for his particular approach to cancer medicine.

By taking a fresh look at some of medicine's most sacrosanct dictates, Dr. Nagourney has found a better, faster, smarter way to treat even the most complex cancers.
