If you know of a really good book on the subject, one that is less than five years old in publication or revision date, please post it here, and explain why you like it and what resources it has for us.

Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book, 4th edition, is an excellent source of up to date information on all aspects of breast cancer. It even has a section on alternative treatments, and includes studies done on them if there are any. Some alternatives are for pain control, some include meditation and prayer... just a lot of alternatives.

It has an in depth discussion of types of BC, stages of growth, modern treatments specific to each cell type, and lots more. It is a great resource book, and will keep you informed so that when you discuss options with your doctors, you can understand the terms and ask intelligent questions about proposed treatment for you.
