520    "Kentucky has more cancer diagnoses and cancer-related 
       deaths than any other state in the nation, and most of 
       these cases are concentrated in the fifty-four counties 
       that constitute the Appalachian region of the 
       commonwealth. These high rankings can be attributed to 
       factors such as elevated smoking rates, unhealthy eating 
       habits, lower levels of education, and limited access to 
       health care. However, what the facts cannot convey on 
       their own is just how life-changing cancer can be-
       something that editors Nathan L. Vanderford, Lauren Hudson,
       and Chris Prichard have endeavored to address. The Cancer 
       Crisis in Appalachia features essays written by a group of
       twenty high school and five undergraduate students, all of
       whom are residents of Kentucky's Appalachian region and 
       are participants in the University of Kentucky Markey 
       Cancer Center's Appalachian Career Training in Oncology 
       (ACTION) program. These authentic and candid student 
       essays detail the effects of cancer diagnoses and deaths 
       on individuals, families, friends, and communities, and 
       proclaim these cases as more than nameless statistics. The
       Cancer Crisis in Appalachia seeks to shed light on 
       personal cancer stories, to inspire those engaging in 
       cancer-risk behaviors to change their ways, to motivate 
       people to get involved with cancer-prevention initiatives,
       and to encourage others to give generously and uplift 
       cancer patients and their loved ones"--|cProvided by
