For those interested in understanding the basics behind the science and politics of cancer therapy, here's a link to a free book entitled WORLD WITHOUT CANCER by G. Edward Griffin, which gives an alternative account to that given by orthodox medicine.

In the forward Griffin stresses 'he is a researcher not a qualified Physician and not qualified to practice medicine in any way.'
he goes on to say:
'If the reader is favorably impressed by the facts and opinion presented in the following pages, and if he decides to seek out Laetrile for his own use, he must do so on his own evaluation of those facts and opinions, and not on a result of any "recommendations" on his part.'
He says this because, at the time of writing, FDA had banned the use of Laetrile in the treatment of cancer.
Anyone who manufactures it, transports it across state lines, sells it, administers it, or even recommends it for use is subject to legal harassment, penalties, or imprisonment.
He dedicates the book to the millions of cancer victims and their loved ones whose tragic suffering has been the tragic cost of scientific arrogance and political vested interest.
May the story presented in this book help to arouse an indignant public awareness which alone can break the hold of these deadly forces.
Description
WORLD WITHOUT CANCER blazes the trail into previously unexplored territory and reveals a shocking picture of how science has been subverted to protect entrenched commercial and political interests.
WORLD WITHOUT CANCER explores the revolutionary concept that cancer is a deficiency disease, like scurvy or pellagra, aggravated by the lack of an essential food compound in modern man's diet. That substance is vitamin B17. But in its concentrated and purified form developed specifically for cancer therapy, it is known as Laetrile, the controversial chemical that currently is banned in the United States.
The story presented in this book does not carry the approval of orthodox medicine. The Food and Drug Administration, The American Cancer Society, and The American Medical Association have labeled it fraud and quackery. Yet the evidence is overwhelming that here, at last, is the final answer to the cancer riddle.
