DOWNLOAD EBOOKCancer is the second leading cause of death among women. The National Cancer Institute now estimates that one in nine women under the age of 85 will contract breast cancer. In the age group 40-44, breast cancer is the number one killer of women. If detected early, many cancers that impact women have five-year survival rates in excess of 90 percent, without timely treatment, that rate quickly drops to 25 percent or less. This volume in Omnigraphics' Health Reference Series is dedicated to help women understand, prevent, detect, cope with, and receive treatment for the major concerns that target them.
