  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In "God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything," Christopher Hitchens presents a critical analysis of religion, arguing that it is a harmful and irrational force in human history. He examines various religions, highlighting their inconsistencies, contradictions, and negative impacts on society. The author contends that religion is a human construct used to control people through fear and indoctrination, not of divine origin. He explores the relationship between religion and morality, concluding that religion does not make people behave better and, in fact, often leads to oppression, violence, and psychological harm. He champions reason, science, and free inquiry as a better way to understand the world.

  Catching cancer early remains the single best way to combat a disease that is the second-leading killer in both the US and worldwide. But the vast majority of resources in the fight against cancer are devoted to relatively ineffective late-stage treatments. Early Detection examines this important anomaly in an accessible and expertly researched survey.In a co-authorship that brings together the passion and urgency of someone touched deeply by the experience of cancer with the knowledge of a skilled science writer, Ratner and Bonislawski narrate compelling case studies across a range of screening programs and different forms of cancer. They look at the science underpinning early detection and discuss the organizational and social challenges of widespread screening, a dimension that has been shown to be especially important in the COVID-19 pandemic. And they call for the government and the medical establishment to provide resources for expanding screening, especially in economically disadvantaged communities that have traditionally been underserved.
