Andrew Kneier, pioneering psychologist at the University of California, San Francisco, has been therapist to thousands with cancer. This groundbreaking book delves into the particular concerns
that patients with the disease (and their families) face, time and again, and explores suffering and resilience.
As the only clinical psychologist at the UCSF Comprehensive Cancer Center for many years, Dr. Andrew Kneier met with nearly 7,500 patients in one-on-one sessions—almost certainly more than any
other therapist in the country. This book is the distillation of their collective insights, anxieties, and more, based on the top ten topics that cancer patients bring up in therapy. It
addresses questions such as: How can God exist in a world with such suffering? What should I tell my family? Can any good come from this? How do I continue my life story? This book will serve
as a “therapist between two covers” for cancer patients, survivors, their families, doctors, and anyone else who needs the wisdom of the most experienced cancer therapist.
