"This fully revised sixth edition explains the biology behind the clinical options. Whether a reader is at risk and interested in prevention, diagnosed and trying to prevent recurrence, or living with metastatic cancer and seeking ways to survive longer and better, Dr. Love provides the most expert and reassuring support. This revision discusses the new genetic tests, controversies regarding screening, and what you need to know about dense breasts. Dr. Love also reviews the most recent technologies, such as liquid biopsies (identifying tumor cells in blood), plus current findings on the timing of chemotherapy, male breast cancer, and exciting new immunological therapies, all in her unique explanatory style. In addition, she considers the collateral damage of treatment and explores the newer approaches to metastatic disease"--Back cover.… (mere)

This is an extremely comprehensive and readable book that will be particularly interesting to anyone diagnosed with breast cancer but which should be required reading for anyone with breasts. Full disclosure: I read the 2005 edition, which was the most recent edition at half price books when I was shopping -- things have been changing so fast in the world of breast cancer treatment that it is woefully out of date, but, tbh, the most recent edition (from 2015) will be equally behind the times. Since I have done A LOT of reading about breast cancer, reading a book from 15+ years ago was an enlightening time capsule on how different treatment for breast cancer (and especially metastatic breast cancer) was not that long ago. What isn't dated is Love's helpful and detailed descriptions of the anatomy of the breast and the basics of how cancer develops and progresses. I was also really drawn to her to-the-point discussion of the limitations of mammograms and breast self exams. Love has an authentic, opinionated, and personable writing voice and a sly sense of humor. The line drawings that illustrate the book are sometimes helpful and sometimes hilarious, but I mostly loved them. If I see the 2015 version at a used book store in the future, I will probably pick it up to see how Love's viewpoint has changed over the years. Highly recommended in combination with other sources that cover more recent developments. ( )

There aren't many reviews out here for this book right now (possibly because the fifth edition is so new?). Maybe because of the scope of the subject (the book has over 700 pages). I won't try to go in to everything that she covers. I'll simply say this: as women are approaching their 50's and having mammograms (hopefully regularly) and doing occasional or possibly even routine self exams, I recommend that each and every one of you have this book on your shelves and do some reading of at least the early chapters.

The chance of developing invasive breast cancer in a woman's lifetime is 1 in 8.

The time to have the information in hand and know the questions to ask and be comfortable and knowledgeable about your breasts and the various terminology associated with abnormal mammograms is BEFORE you have one.

This is the book that covers all aspects of breast health and breast cancer. I highly recommend it. ( )

Absolutely calming and no-nonsense approach to breast cancer. Every woman or family battling breast cancer should have this book on their shelf to read after a diagnosis and really understand what the doctors are saying. ( )
