Dr. John Laszlo, National Vice President for Research at the American Cancer Society (Atlanta, Georgia), has seen the progress toward a cure for leukemia firsthand as a clinician and a medical researcher. He was the first volunteer to try out a new blood cell separator and among the first physicians to use the machine to save the life of a leukemia patient--an experience he relates in this book. He is the author of Understanding Cancer, and he is a survivor of his own bout with cancer. He is donating all royalties to the American Cancer Society.
