This page collects books that may be useful for patients, carers, and readers exploring integrative oncology, healing, mindset, metabolic approaches, repurposed drugs, and broader cancer support.
The Cancer Resolution

The oncology research landscape and where it places patients
the Cell Suppression Theory of cancer
a broader integrative framework for understanding the cause of cancer
Inner Sky

mindset and emotional healing
perspective shifts during cancer
integrative support beyond biochemistry and treatment
