About the Book

The Cancer Generation is the most honest and thorough accounting of the status of our nation's war on cancer that I have ever read. It captures that extraordinarily complex blend of hope and fear, disappointment and optimism that characterizes a diagnosis of cancer for individuals and the spectrum of cancer for the country. John Geyman's book is easy to read and totally convincing, the cancer storm is here and is about to intensify. But this thoroughly researched book provides far more than a warning about our rising cancer burden. Geyman utilizes his life's experience as a primary care physician and policy expert to identify the decisions and investments that we must make today to navigate our way through the cancer storm to a healthier future."-Richard Wender, M.D., Professor and Chairman, Department Of Family Medicine, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA, and past president of the American Cancer Society
About the Author: John Geyman, M.D. is professor emeritus of family medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, where he served as Chairman of the Department of Family Medicine from 1976 to 1990.
As a family physician with over 25 years in academic medicine, he also practiced in rural communities for 13 years.
 He was the founding editor of The Journal of Family Practice (1973 to 1990) and the editor of The American Journal of Family Medicine from 1990 to 2003. Since 1990 he has been involved with research and writing on health policy and health care reform.
