THE LATEST NEWS CANCERPAGE.COM BOOK REVIEWS Our senior editor has selected a few choice books and listed them in our Medical Marketplace with a brief description. The book list includes Not Now... I'm Having a No Hair Day and Laughter Therapy as well as books on alternative and complementary therapies, financial and legal issues of cancer, nutrition, and biographies. You can also buy them online through links to Amazon.com. Have you run across a book or tape that has been particularly helpful to you in your battle against cancer? We'd like to share that recommendation with other visitors of cancerpage.com. Drop us a note: editor@cancerpage.com. IF YOU ARE IN THE SUN, BE IN THE KNOW If you are going to be in the sun, the Skin Cancer Foundation recommends applying sunscreen liberally, uniformly, and frequently. They say "reapply sunscreen every two hours and right after swimming." The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends SPFs of 15, which block 93 percent of UVB, so higher SPF ratings are not necessary unless you are especially at risk. Their website also explains what to look for to catch skin cancer early. For more information, see: |
