Hi Barb,

I think on the ACOR list the other day I saw you asking about a book

that I had also heard of before. I went on Google............

the book is The Human Side of Cancer

by Jimmie C. Holland, MD

" Jimmie C. Holland, M.D., author of The Human Side of Cancer, has been

central to the establishment of psycho-oncology as a subspecialty

within oncology dealing with the psychological, social, and

behavioral aspects of cancer. In the 1970s, she recognized the need

to treat the emotional trauma experienced by many cancer patients and

their families, and ultimately became the founder of the field of

psycho-oncology. "

If you go on Google....you can see the table of contents, read the

first 2 chapters I think and some recommendations.

On ACOR, the poster had the first name wrong.
