Review

Through the experience of Dr. Brawley, chief medical and scientific officer of the American Cancer Society, the reader clearly sees some of the waste that occurs in the American medical system.   Doctors prescribe treatments that will financially benefit them which haven't been scientifically proven.  Elderly patients may undergo painful procedures that do not significantly extend their lives.  Even some cancer screenings may not extend life. An eye opening read.
