Autor Carolyn Hornblow
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 sep 2021

This book should prove valuable in relieving stress and anxiety. Especially important nowadays as the journey from diagnosis to cure or death is longer due to improvements in medical care. Healthcare workers and public worldwide would benefit as death is Universal. The writing style is engaging, easy to read yet highly informative. I would recommend this book to my patients and their families and friends.

This is an important resource for a large, needy population: a very useful guide for those facing serious disease that requires long term treatment. Carolyn is intuitive and experienced in these issues and provides excellent coverage of the topic in an easy to read format. I would have found it useful when I was in medical practice before retiring.
