Vähiga silmitsi - Ille Grün-Ots

Produced in collaboration with Estonian doctors, the first part of the book addresses the causes of cancer: what or who might be responsible for its development? Alongside the causes, the book provides an overview of how individuals can do their best to avoid developing cancer or to detect the disease as early as possible. The second part focuses on the question of whether it is possible to be vaccinated against cancer. Although there is currently no direct vaccine against cancer itself, there are vaccines available that help prevent the diseases that lead to cancer. The third part of the book is dedicated to examining forms of cancer that affect women, while the fourth part covers cancers that affect men. The book also discusses why children develop cancer. A separate section explains the cancer treatment methods known to and used by modern medicine. Additionally, the book contains many real-life stories; individuals who have battled various forms of cancer share their experiences so that readers might find support in them if needed.
