"A very good book mainly about the development of Her-2/Neu drug, taking it to the marketplace, what women go through when hit with breast cancer, how people try to jump to share / take credit and sometimes how the deserving guy misses out on the credits...
An important thing to learn is: it is not a good idea to trust the doctor 100%, something that most folks tend to do. You are the one who is most responsible for your own health. The doctor might be good, but might take the safest approach etc. If you want to get well, do your own homework!"
