From the reviews:
“This book summarizes what the research indicates about the relationship of nutrition to breast cancer. … The purpose is to describe the current literature on the topic of nutrition and breast cancer and is a needed addition to the literature in this field. The book is written for students, residents, and practitioners in obstetrics/gynecology. … This is a very nice review of the literature in the field of breast cancer and diet.” (Linda G. Snetselaar, Doody’s Review Service, March, 2012)()
