Rezensionen

"Trish Bartley has succeeded in writing a book that speaks to the deepest fears of cancer sufferers with such compassion that no-one can fail to draw hope and healing from her words. Drawing on her own experience of cancer, and on her skill as a mindfulness teacher, she has pioneered a combination of mindfulness and cognitive therapy that is enormously empowering for sufferers and their families. The implications of what she says go far wider than any clinic - to the heart of what it means to be fully human and fully alive in the presence of our own death." -- Mark Williams, Director, Oxford Mindfulness Centre, and Co-author of 'Mindfulness: a practical guide to finding peace in a frantic world'

"The author's wish to share her expertise is commendable. Written from a wealth of experience and conviction, the book is a valuable tool for anyone involved in dealing with the psychological aspects of cancer care." (Doody's, 4 January 2013)
