WINNING THE WAR ON CANCER by SYLVIE BELJANSKI is a non-fiction book. A vivid story that cuts through more than two decades of the Beljanski family life and their selfless and unbending fight against cancer, popular beliefs about curing the disease, and the institutions, governments, and companies that are the guardians of these beliefs. Wealth is health, and even if you don't buy the idea, cancer can give you a new perspective. A man who helps an ailing president attracts the attention of very powerful individuals and institutions. The individuals that almost tore his entire life's work to the ground, and might have even been behind the death of the man, the author's father. Sylvie told a story; a real story; the real cost of serving humanity has always been blood... and more. When is it enough? When is the sacrifice enough? When is serving humanity enough? What causes this great disease called cancer? What are those two natural extracts that can reduce the cancer tumors and even target only cancer cells in the body, even the cancer stem cells, and reduce them drastically, by up to 80 percent! How deep do the big pharmaceutical companies go in controlling the information we receive and how we receive it? Do we even get all the information? Sylvie Beljanski answers this in the lines of this book.


What I loved about the book was the heart of the writer. You could almost feel how much she cared; how she cared that her father's research be validated; her refusal to let his work die. How she sacrificed her law practice in order to pursue the founding of the Beljanski foundation is remarkable. She is a lawyer, and I can almost imagine how different the two fields of science and law are. And yet she did it. Despite how she never put a spot light on it, she surprised me with her doggedness and refusal to quit. I must confess, the writer just topped my list of most tough people in the world. What do you do when the world is against you? Sylvie says: ignore it and keep on doing what you are doing. At least that was how I felt. 


What didn't I like about the book? Absolutely nothing. Save, of course, that part where they injected those rats with cancer cells to carry out a test on the effectiveness of those two extracts I talked about. I understand it was for the greater good, but I still felt horrible for the rats, and I am not a rat person! Also, the dark and wicked actions of the government of France against Sylvie's father will forever be in my mind. I am beginning to wonder if the FDA and other food and drug regulations around the world are working for their citizens or for very rich corporations. It even sounds like a conspiracy theory now.
 

Sylvie did well with this book. It's one of those books you only get to read once in a lifetime. I rate it 4 out of 4 stars .It was professionally edited as I didn't notice any errors in the book. 
 
Lovers of non-fiction autobiographies and biographies of great men and women in science and their revolutionary findings would love this book. Everybody can and should read this book, irrespective of their religion. Cancer already has a cure.
