Summary

Bruce Ratner and Adam Bonislawski examine cancer screening and the case for finding some cancers earlier. The book joins personal experience with reporting on programs, research and access to care.

It makes an argument about public attention and resources. Its examples should be assessed with attention to the limits and tradeoffs of screening, rather than used as individual medical instructions.

Why read it Our view

Read it as a policy argument and ask which claims are supported by which studies. Distinguish population-level evidence from a decision about an individual patient.
