    very well and is a truly excellent writer and raconteur (French for storyteller) which a lot ...
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 14, 2016*

I was enraptured with this book!  It brought me to tears over and over again because of the coincidences that devastated people's lives and how just one small change in someone's decision or that of her/his medical practitioner could have sent the whole trajectory of their health and lives on a whole different course!This book really evoked the deep mystery of the lives we lead here on our Earth; such beauty and horror!  Also, Dr. Groopman expresses himself very, very well and is a truly excellent writer and raconteur (French for storyteller) which a lot of people, although they are gifted professionals in other fields cannot do very well a lot of the time.I have read this book more than once and I contacted Dr. Groppman several times but did not get a warm reception, probably because I am trying to scientifically prove through an NIH (National Institutes of Health) clinical trial (or disprove!  I am completely open to whatever the outcome is as a lot of people who call themselves scientific ABSOLUTELY ARE NOT!  I've run into this over and over again, especially those who call themselves skeptics; not only is their outlook NOT scientific, they also make many ad feminam/hominem attacks which are uncalled for and which also are irrelevant to what we're discussing which is the very meaning of ad feminan/hominem attacks:  they mean to cast aspersions on the person rather than speak to the actual issues at hand)  herbal medicaments for some cancers and although he nor his assistant said so, I think they strongly disapproved, which he wrote some about in his book.  Bummer!  Please see my crowdfunding campaign here and donate generously if you believe in what we're trying to do: [...]

    another great Groopman book
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 12, 2013*

I am a Groopman groupie.  This book, like all his others,  is a wise book about medical conditions.  His writing introduces unqiue dimensions to medical writing that appeals to the human and spiritual side of all who are concerned about issues of illness and  decisionmaking in all their complexity.

    Nice perspective from a cancer doc
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 5, 2010*

I have always thought I would refuse almost all cancer treatments especially chemo, so reading this gave me a very different perspective and almost convinced me I would fight till the bitter end with everything we've got.  But then I realized this was the perspective (and very selected case studies) of a cancer researcher and doctor that has everything to gain from his patients allowing all his aggressive treatments.  Still it's a well written and inspirational account of the process should one decide to go for it and fight the "courageous battle".
