  • "Combining patient stories and data on common cancers, the author makes the case that testing healthy people for cancer is really a double-edged sword: tests may help, but some have little effect and are sometimes even harmful."
  • "A nationally recognized expert on early cancer detection challenges the widely accepted beliefs: that the best defense against cancer is to try to catch it early, examining such common cancer screening tests as total body scans, mammograms, and prostate specific antigen (PSA) tests, and arguing that testing healthy people for cancer often has surprisingly little effect and is sometimes even harmful."
