Title: Early Detection: Catching Cancer When It's Curable Author: Bruce Ratner, Adam Bonislawski Narrator: Dennis Boutsikaris Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 27 minutes Release date: June 11, 2024 Genres: Medicine & Naturopathy Publisher's Summary: Catching cancer early remains the single best way to combat a disease that is the second-leading killer in both the US and worldwide. But the vast majority of resources in the fight against cancer are devoted to relatively ineffective late-stage treatments. Early Detection examines this important anomaly in an accessible and expertly researched survey. In a co-authorship that brings together the passion and urgency of someone touched deeply by the experience of cancer with the knowledge of a skilled science writer, Ratner and Bonislawski narrate compelling case studies across a range of screening programs and different forms of cancer. They look at the science underpinning early detection and discuss the organizational and social challenges of widespread screening, a dimension that has been shown to be especially important in the COVID-19 pandemic. And they call for the government and the medical establishment to provide resources for expanding screening, especially in economically disadvantaged communities that have traditionally been underserved.
