Appendix C: Books and Websites

A WEALTH OF INFORMATION about childhood brain and spinal cord tumors is available through libraries and computers. This appendix briefly describes how to get the most from these resources and lists specific books and websites that you might find helpful when conducting research on your child’s medical condition or treatment.

You might find there are some print books you wish to own. If they are not in stock at your local or online bookstore, ask if they can be special-ordered for you—most bookstores are happy to do this for customers. Copies of out-of-print books can often be located on the Internet through used bookstores or private sellers on sites such as Amazon.com. Ebooks are available in many different formats and from many online booksellers (e.g., www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com) or from local libraries.
