Summary:
This is Dr. Kathleen Ruddy's landmark book that gives an extraordinary glimpse into the history of breast cancer research, and the findings that support the theory that a mouse virus that causes breast cancer in mice, and has also been found in rats, cats, dogs, and monkeys plays a significant role in 40-94% of human breast cancer. Researchers contend that we are one step away from having final proof of this. Print run 20,000.
