Recensione:
Trish Bartley has succeeded in writing a book that speaks to thedeepest fears of cancer sufferers with such compassion that no–onecan fail to draw hope and healing from her words. Drawing on herown experience of cancer, and on her skill as a mindfulnessteacher, she has pioneered a combination of mindfulness andcognitive therapy that is enormously empowering for sufferers andtheir families. The implications of what she says go far wider thanany clinic to the heart of what it means to be fullyhuman and fully alive in the presence of our own death.
