Lance Armstrong is a seven-time winner of the Tour de France and fulltime cancer fighter. He oversees the Lance Armstrong Foundation, a nonprofit organization that assists cancer patients around the world with managing and surviving the disease. He won the first of his record-setting seven Tour de France wins after surviving a nearly fatal bout with testicular cancer. In 2008, he was named one of Time magazine''s 100 Most Influential People. He lives in Austin, Texas.

Survivors from all walks of life talk about what “living strong” in the face of cancer means to them. Since the now ubiquitous LIVESTRONG™ wristbands became available in May 2004, the Lance Armstrong Foundation has raised more than $50 million for cancer survivorship programs, and the signature phrase has become a battle cry for those who fight the disease every day. Now, the Lance Armstrong Foundation has compiled, from hours of videotaped interviews, poignant and dramatic personal accounts from cancer survivors. Covering a wide range of subjects, from grief to spousal relationships, employment discrimination to coping with medical bills, infertility to fear of recurrence, survivors share their experiences and speak candidly about how cancer has impacted their lives. For twenty-four-year-old Amy it’s how her illness changed her relationship with her parents. Mike, a male survivor of breast cancer, talks about gender stereotypes and genetic testing. And Eric, the father of a five-year-old survivor of a brain tumor, recalls how friends and strangers helped his family with financial issues and how the experience brought him and his wife closer together. While heartbreaking at times, these powerfully honest stories are ultimately uplifting and extremely reassuring to patients and their families. They offer the wisdom and hope that only survivors can give. LiveStrong is a remarkable testament to the resilience of the human spirit. From the introduction by Lance Armstrong: My work with the LAF shows me daily that sharing our stories and learning from one another’s experiences helps us cancer survivors continue to survive. Some people think the cancer experience is only about the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, as if after the disease goes into remission, it no longer exists. But survivorship goes beyond remission. Survivorship is an evolution.

''Chasing Lance'' tells the extraordinary story of Lance Armstrong''s final race, guiding us on a 2240-mile journey through the French countryside, up the rugged peaks of the Pyrenees, all the way to one final ride down the Champs-Elysees."

The stunningly candid autobiography of one of cycling''s great names and the man who rode alongside Lance Armstrong for each of his seven Tour victories George Hincapie has always personified more than the sport in which he chose to compete, cycling, and his legacy will be more than the sum of his accomplishments on the road. It is also intertwined with the team-mates he helped to achieve success. As Lance Armstrong''s trusted sidekick, he helped re-write the record books of the greatest cycling event in the world, the Tour de France. No other team-mate was with Lance for all seven of his wins. No one was closer to him as a friend or confidante and no one was closer to the scandal which would ultimately bring down Armstrong and so many of those around him. Told with stunning candour, "The Loyal Lieutenant" offers the most transparent and engaging account yet of the now infamous years of cycling''s modern history. It is a book that will once again change our perceptions of what it means to be a sporting great.

One of the key recommendations of the joint IOM and NRC book, From Cancer Patient to Cancer Survivor: Lost in Transition, is that patients completing their primary treatment for cancer be given a summary of their treatment and a comprehensive plan for follow-up. This book answers practical questions about how this "Survivorship Care Plan," including what exactly it should contain, who will be responsible for creating and discussing it, implementation strategies, and anticipated barriers and challenges.

" Chaque fois que je remporte le Tour de France, je prouve que je suis vivant et que d''autres peuvent survivre. J''ai survécu au cancer, encore et encore et encore. J''ai remporté cinq fois le Tour, et je ne serais pas contre un sixième titre en 2004. Ce serait une bonne façon de vivre. Mais je n''aurais pas remporté un seul Tour sans ce que la maladie m''a appris : la douleur n''a qu''un temps mais lorsqu''on renonce, c''est pour toujours. Il n''y a pas eu pour moi de dénouement heureux comme dans les contes. J''ai survécu au cancer et j''ai effectué un retour triomphant, comme cycliste, en remportant le Tour 1999, mais c''était plus un commencement qu''une fin. Au cours des cinq années qui ont suivi, j''ai eu trois enfants, j''ai subi des centaines de contrôles anti-dopage, je me suis rompu le cou, j''ai gagné d''autres courses, j''en ai aussi perdu quelques-unes et j''ai vécu la fin de mon mariage. Entre autres aventures. "
