Why This Book Is Different

Cancer care is becoming increasingly complex. Garden of Recovery provides a framework for seeing the bigger picture.

A Systems View of Cancer

Connecting Biology With Treatment

The book explains how biological characteristics of cancer can influence treatment response, adaptation and resistance.

Exploring Drug Repurposing

Established medications being investigated for potential roles in cancer biology are examined alongside their mechanisms, evidence and safety considerations.

Integrating Supportive Care

Nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management and other aspects of comprehensive care are considered alongside cancer treatment.
