Synopsis
This extraordinary resource celebrates and expands on Dr. David Spiegel's discovery that a shared intimacy with mortality creates very different concerns in the patient from those that apply in conventional settings. Spiegel and Classen introduce mental health professionals to the awareness as well as the tools they will need to facilitate groups coping with existential crises. The result is a model for helping that actually helps.

Review
"A superb clinical text! Every page displays wisdom, scholarship, humanity, and enabling instruction. I believe that, for many years to come, this book will represent the gold standard for the group treatment of cancer patients." -- Irvin D. Yalom, M.D., Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry Stanford University School of Medicine
"Realistic rather than idealistic, this approach will be of substantial benefit to many cancer patients. Its rich examples are humane and lucid, making the book extraordinarily useful in teaching professionals throughout the world how to provide the help it describes." -- Mardi Horowitz, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry and Director, Center on Stress and Personality, University of California at San Francisco
"Spiegel's work has been seminal to the acceptance and expansion of support groups for patients with cancer. It is fitting that he, with psychologist colleague Catherine Classen, has now literally 'written the book' on how to do it-properly and well." -- Jimmie C. Holland, M.D., Wayne E. Chapman Chair in Psychiatric Oncology Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
