Barnes & Noble Corte Madera Local Author Event:

The Woman Who Cured Cancer: The Story of Cancer Pioneer Virginia Livingston-Wheeler, M.D. and the Discovery of the Cancer-Causing Microbe

by Edmond G. Addeo

Barnes & Noble Corte Madera today announced that they will host local author Edmond G. Addeo, for a Book Talk and Signing on Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at 6pm.

“A woman discovers the source of cancer is bacterial, rather than viral, and spends years in the mid-1900s researching a protocol to successfully destroy it. But the medical establishment vilifies and ignores her findings. So she goes it alone, establishing her own medical clinic that has phenomenal survival rates. Sounds like a Michael Crichton techno-thriller? No way! It’s the real-life story of Virginia Livingston-Wheeler, M.D., a brilliant, stubborn, pioneering microbiologist and epidemiologist whose cure for cancer will one day be viewed alongside the discoveries of Pasteur, Curie, and Salk/Sabin.” – from Basic Health Publications (publisher)

Edmond G. Addeo is a prolific journalist, author, and editor with 40 years of experience. He has written everything from novels, non-fiction, screenplays, celebrity interviews, and sport columns to science and health-based articles and books.
