Summary: Why our nation's huge, 40-year investment in cancer research may have been badly spent.Ten years ago, journalist and cancer survivor, Clifton Leaf, began to investigate why scientists haven't made more progress fighting cancer. Now in his book, The Truth in Small Doses, Leaf shares the startling answer. His book is a gripping narrative that reveals why our nation's huge, 40-year investment in cancer research may have been badly spent, why scientists rarely share their data with each other, why new drugs are so expensive yet often fail to deliver a cure, and why our best hope for progress -- brilliant young scientists -- are now abandoning the search for a cure. Leaf shares the unsettling truth that inspired his book -- and provides new hope for a healthier, cancer-free tomorrow. Bonus! RealAge Tip 3 Cool Tricks for Tired Eyes
