Sabrina McCormick weaves the story of one survivor with no family history into a powerful exploration of the big business of breast cancer. As drugs, pink products, and corporate sponsorsbips generate enormous revenue to find a cure, a growing number of experts argue that we should instead increase focus on prevention-reducing environmental exposures that have contributed to the sharp increase of breast cancer rates." "But the dollars continue to pour into the search for a cure, and the companies that profit, including some pharmaceutical and cosmetics companies, may in fact contribute to the environmental causes of breast cancer. No Family History shows how profits drive our public focus on the cure rather than prevention, and suggests new ways to reduce breast cancer rates in the future."--BOOK JACKET. 650 0 $a Breast $x Environmental aspects. $x Environmental aspects. 650 12 $a Breast Neoplasms $x etiology $z United States. 650 12 $a Environmental Exposure $x adverse effects $z United States. 650 22 $a Breast Neoplasms $x prevention & control $z United States. 650 22 $a Public Policy $z United States. 830 0 $a New social formations. 941 $a 8 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528043512.0 952 $l IBAX173 $d 20180307022231.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20171003034507.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418072541.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20140415020803.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20100405115207.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20100120073657.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20100120073657.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=08FEAB8082AB11DE820800E8A7D7520A 994 $a 02 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
