Preface
Cancer is a chronic disease. There are increasing cancer survivors after curative
cancer treatment and this makes supportive cancer care an important area that more
attention is needed. Chinese medicine has a long history of practice; it has aroused
much interest from both Oriental and Western countries. A number of laboratory
evidences and clinical trials demonstrated the effectiveness and efficacies of Chinese
medicine for supportive cancer care. This book attempts to take a comprehensive
approach to overview the different areas of Chinese medicine for supportive cancer
care.
This book not only serves as an introduction to novices to the area and a useful
reference for those already involved, but also serves as a stimulus to these and others
to employ alternative approaches to current cancer care.
