This book presents and discusses the latest findings from science and practice for a broad range of psychological and social issues related to cancer and its treatments. Not only are general psychosocial impacts of cancer described, but the very common fear of progression is elucidated. The relevance of psycho-oncology at different stages of disease (during oncological treatment, in rehabilitation, and during palliative care) is explained, and various psycho-oncological interventions are illustrated. Other important topics are the experience of being a cancer survivor, who may be cured but not be healthy, the psychological burden on relatives, and gender differences in coping with cancer. Quality of life and patient-reported outcomes are also commented on since they are among the key benchmarks for successful coping with the diagnosis of cancer, its treatment, and its late effects.The chapters are written by distinguished scientists, however as we often learn most from those affected by cancer one author speaks for herself as a patient. 000696885 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed January 8, 2014). 000696885 650_0 $$aCancer$$xPatients$$xMental health. 000696885 650_0 $$aCancer$$xPsychological aspects. 000696885 650_0 $$aCancer$$xPatients$$xCare. 000696885 650_0 $$aMedicine. 000696885 650_0 $$aOncology. 000696885 650_0 $$aPhilosophy. 000696885 650_0 $$aPsychiatry. 000696885 7001_ $$aGoerling, Ute. 000696885 830_0 $$aRecent results in cancer research ;$$v197. 000696885 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696885 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-40187-9$$zOnline Access 000696885 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696885$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696885 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696885 980__ $$aBIB 000696885 982__ $$aEbook 000696885 983__ $$aOnline 000696885 994__ $$a92$$bISE
