Review
I feel the book comprises a very comprehensive overview of supportive care, presented in a clear way and accessible form. It is a book that anyone involved in the care of cancer patients should find relevant and informative and may well want on their own bookshelves in addition to their organisation's library. (Hospice Information Bulletin )
...focuses on the experiences of people who have been diagnosed with cancer. One of the great strengths of this book is that these experiences are explained as a normal reaction. I highly recommend this book. It is useful for all those who care for patients with cancer, specialist and nonspecialist alike. It is comprehensive in its breadth and is well written. It has practical suggestions of improving practice and has an extensive bibliography for those interested to read further. (Dr Julian Abel, Consultant in Palliative Medicine, Weston General Hospital, Weston-super-Mare )
As one who works in both medical oncology and palliative care, the type of care outlined in this book is long overdue and, if it can be successfully introduced into busy oncology services, will be a quantum improvement in the care out patients receive. (IAHPC Website )
It is all too rare to find sensitivity and knowledge in perfect balance among the medicos; with the joy of discovery, therefore, I read Dr Brennan's book, Cancer in Context, and with genuine enthusiasm I can recommend it to anyone - professional or layperson - caring for or about a cancer patient. (Irma Kurtz, Writer, Journalist and Broadcaster )
Cancer in Context: A Practical Guide to Supportive Care, is a sensible, humane, and sophisticated examination of the challenges facing patients, their families, and those who care for them. The deep understanding conveyed by this book will lead to more compassionate and effective care. (David Spiegel, M.D., Willson Professor in the School of Medicine, Stanford University, USA )
