商品描述
This book offers a rich exploration of how cancer is experienced, narrated, and understood through creative literature. Drawing on literary works by 30 international authors, Ad A. Kaptein and Brian Hughes focus on the human experience of cancer, examining the lived experiences of patients, their families, and caregivers. Framed within psychological theory and the evolving field of Health Humanities, Writing Cancer provides a scholarly yet accessible analysis of narratives and how they can help shape clinical understanding. The authors invite health researchers and clinicians to reconsider the patient's voice and emphasise a culturally grounded, empathic, and holistically framed approach to cancer care.
