This book is about the magic of hope - and shows us how hope really is within reach for all of us. At a time when there are so many constraints in medicine, this book wonderfully illustrates layers of understanding and examples for doctors and patients on the journey of building transformational relationships with each other and their loved ones. - Mark Abdelmalek, MD, ABC News Reporter and Medical Contributor, USA Caring demands that we respond with compassion and competence, but always starts by noticing. Dr. Ko's writing can help you get better at being aware of and improve your capacity to notice with your eyes, ears, minds, and hearts, to care. Read this book. - Victor M.
