Description:
Dr. Jimmie Holland, a pioneer in the field of psycho-oncology, has spent years talking to people with cancer and their families and presents a new understanding of what it's like to face this dreaded disease. She understands that everyone copes very differently with such a prospect, and puts forward the controversial yet commonsense notion that the current overzealous belief in the mind-body connection leads many people to blame themselves for getting cancer, or for not getting better. She provides practical and compassionate guidance on:
-- What makes a cancer diagnosis easier -- and harder -- to deal with
-- How to respect and appropriately respond to a person's way of coping and avoid the "one size fits all" approach
-- How to help patients find meaning in what's happening
-- The help available for people dealing with the emotional aspects of cancer.
