No Such Thing as a Bad Day

Since serving in the Carter White House in the late 1970s， Hamilton Jordan has survived non-Hodgkins lymphoma， melanoma， and prostate cancer. In this remarkable memoir， Jordan recounts his adventures in both the political arena and the world of modern cancer treatment. The political stories are fascinating--but it is when he talks of his cancers that Jordan achieves his real impact. For this is not a story about medical miracles. It s about how a patient defeats cancer by taking charge of his own treatment and becoming a well-informed partner in his cure.
