As the wise and compassionate double Dr. (internist and psychiatrist) Kogon says, "you do not have to get lost in the emotional jungle of cancer." Not with her as your guide. She has distilled her career of treating the minds and bodies of hundreds of people struggling to live with cancer. Knowledge is power, and she shares both with her patients, and now, with you, her readers. She teaches you how to come alive even as you face the threat of dying. With her wry and penetrating sense of humor, she normalizes the worst by teaching you how to do your best. Enjoy your trip through and out of the jungle.

-David Spiegel, MD, Stanford University School of Medicine, psychiatrist, and author of Living Beyond Limits
