I would like to thank you for sending me the book entitled:“Obesity as a Common Denominator in Breast Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease”,authored by Katarzyna Rygiel,MD,Ph.D.In my opinion,as a pharmacist and an academic teacher,this book presents an exceptional work,which is certainly needed for a daily work of medical professionals(not only doctors and nurses but also pharmacists).The author presents obesity as a chronic illness that is interconnected with breast cancer(BC)and cardiovascular disease(CVD)[1-3].Step by step,she discusses the complex problems associated with obesity as a modifiable risk factor for BC and CVD[4-6].
