I stumbled across an interesting book

It looks to have been published in 2000, so wondering if it's old news or if anyone has read it. Kind of technical for me, but very interesting information. I'll continue to read up and visit with my onc when I see him in August. Might briefly mention it to the surgeon on followup next week, but still more to read. Basically about estrogen dominance and breast cancer - not related to ER/PR receptors.

The book is "What your doctor may NOT tell you about breast cancer"

If you've read it...thoughts?
