From junior doctor in the 1970s to mid-career consultant and now internationally recognised authority, breast cancer doctor Ian Smith explains the nature of the condition and the evolution of its treatment through a series of moving stories about the patients who put their lives in his care: meet the young teacher who from first diagnosis through to the final stage of her journey illuminates the many complexities of cancer treatment; the pregnant mother-to-be diagnosed at 24 weeks; the survivor-turned-cancer research fundraiser; and many more.
