This is a very good book to own. December 1, 1998 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
The Cancer Prevention Diet, by Michio Kushi, outlines the causes and cures for cancer, according to a macrobiotic philosophy. This philosophy, posited on yin-yang (as male-female) is about excess, imbalance (sickness) and balance (health) and how to bring this about in our lives and our diets. It is a wonderful book - very thorough on background, filled with testimonies from cancer survivors, outlining the different types of cancers, and detailing information on menus, cooking, healing tactics, etc. Even if one does not fully embrace the macrobiotic philosophy, I think this is a wonderful book, and gives sound advice on healthy eating and lots of other things associated with cancer. I highly recommend this book as a reference book for health, and a book of hope.
