Dr. Julie Silver offers a holistic approach to healing after cancer treatment, one that uses clinical medicine as a springboard for describing a variety of approaches that can lead to better quality of life for cancer survivors. Silver, a cancer survivor herself and a physiatrist at Harvard University whose job as a doctor is to help people feel better, draws on her professional and personal experience to help other survivors feel more well, get stronger, and develop an emotional base to help them cope with their new status as cancer survivor. She includes the latest evidence about what people can do (including exercise and diet) to decrease the chances that the cancer will recur--something nearly every cancer survivor focuses on. Dr. Silver relates her own story in broad, touching strokes and interweaves the stories of other cancer survivors whose inspirational and validating narratives provide a backdrop for the practical advice forming the core of the book. From our readers' reports: "Dr. Silver's book encompasses not just emotional and physical healing but spiritual as well.
