The physician and cancer: In their own words

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

In this chapter, through prose and poetry, physicians explore their experiences with cancer. These narratives extend our understanding of cancer's impact on health beyond the biomedical domain. In gathering and listening to these stories we tell ourselves and others, our goal is to foster more humanistic and holistic care for those with cancer.
