Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Historical view point but cyto toxins are devistating & experimental.
As a mother of 3, one of which has ALL Acute Lymphoblastic leukaemia, and a researcher, I want parents to know that there is more out there than this author offers.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Miracles and Medicine: One Parent's Introduction to Leukemia

Childhood leukemia survival rates have increased dramatically in the last 20 years and this book gives historical perspective of significant treatment breakthroughs and scientific developments through the stories of several doctors and researchers. Excellent reference book for students and researchers, less applicable for medical consumers who may find current treatment-oriented books more useful.
