An authoritative manual of instructions... This book is highly recommended. -- M. G. Paregian

An authoritative manual of instructions... This book is highly recommended. -- M. G. Paregian Brief (at just 171 pages) but powerful, this straightforward book is both sobering and inspiring. Hopkins Medicine No matter how experienced a professional might be in dealing with patients with pancreatic cancer, it is refreshing to hear from the patient's perspective, reading how they navigate through the system before they land in our clinic and receive our care. Overall, I would recommend this book to all health professionals who care for patients with pancreatic cancer (both novice and seasoned), as well as those who are adjusting to a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. -- Raymond Chan Cancer Forum This book is excellent. It is positive and compassionate... It would make a useful contribution to a library. Macmillan Cancer Support
