‘This is an important book. It deals in a detailed,
well-informed and approachable way with difficult issues. It offers
much-needed help to health care workers who want to communicate
sensitively with cancer patients. Enlivened by vignettes which
illustrate each point, it is wise, humane and practical. I commend
it strongly to everyone who needs to understand and talk about
cancer to those who have the disease.’ Miles Little,

‘I welcome this book which should become the standard text for undergraduates and postgraduates in the humanization of modern medicine. At last we have two texts that can stand side by side, Communication in Cancer Care and C: Because Cowards Get Cancer Too [by John Diamond], the heads and tails of the humane practice of oncology.’ Michael Baum, Emeritus Professor of Surgery and Visiting Professor of Medical Humanities, University College London
