Reviews

These firsthand accounts by survivors once diagnosed as terminally ill will appeal to those who found comfort in Norman Cousins's Anatomy of an Illness. In informative, inspiring commentaries, Massachusetts psychologist Roud writes that those who overcome cancer or other fatal diseases share a will to live, positive mental attitude and the ability to alter lifestyle. As one patient here notes, "It was either change or die." This outlook is the key, according to Roud, to these "miracles." Author tour.

According to psychologist Roud, medical science grossly understates the incidence of extraordinary recovery from serious illness. To bridge this "information gap," Roud interviewed in depth 11 men and women who have conquered overwhelming medical odds--against cancer, heart disease, cystic fibrosis, and severe mental illness. Although each found his or her own way back to health, the factor that Roud sees as setting them apart from others who were not so fortunate was their ability to change and grow. Readers looking for easy answers will not find them here, nor will they find the sheer exuberance that they find in the books of Roud's friend, Dr. Bernie Siegel, but those looking for hope that they too can change their lives, that they too can overcome tremendous medical odds, will find it.
