Description
"Drawn from extensive research and on-the-ground reporting, Heal explores how veterinarians and oncologists are working together to find new therapies for similar cancers in dogs and people, including lymphoma, breast cancer, melanoma, and gastric cancer. Heal also examines the emerging science behind some dogs' remarkable ability to sniff out early stage tumors and the efforts underway to translate that talent into diagnostic devices for early detectionof cancer. Throughout the course of her research, Weintraub, who lost her sister to gastric cancer, takes her own personal journey from grief to healing as she examines how man's best friend might be the key to unlocking the mysteryies of the disease." --,P.
