  Marion Stroud draws on personal experience and the experience of many others in this very practical and approachable book. She takes the reader through the tests, diagnoses and treatments, explains the medical hierarchy and looks at the various options for those who are living with cancer. She considers diet, exercise and relaxation, and lists agencies that provide help and support. She also explores the emotional impact - fear, anxiety, anger. She helps readers understand themselves, talk honestly and openly, and live life to the full, sharing her own discovery that hope and faith can survive the cancer diagnosis. 'As a practising cancer specialist I feel this book will be of both practical and spiritual help to many people and I would warmly recommend it.' Dr Alan Stewart, The Christie Hospital, Manchester
