Cancer is Like the Wind is one of the first if not the first books that portrays in a clear, honest, and realistic way, through the eyes of a practicing oncologist, the medical and emotional struggles that confront patients and their families and friends attempting to cope with cancer. The authors sharing of patients histories interwoven with discussions of nature, literature, and philosophy will firmly strike a chord with anyone who has faced the challenge of cancer, and enlighten those who have been fortunate enough to have been spared. The author is a caring in-the-trenches clinician who actually took patient calls and raced out to hospital emergency rooms at all hours of the day and night for over twenty years. The quiet heroism of patients sometimes rewarded with remissions and cures, and other times not is presented without didactic lecturing and in a unique juxtaposition to a heartfelt appreciation for the medicinal value of nature. From the protozoans in the hindguts of termites to the hemlock woolly adelgid; from the trials and tribulations of patients enduring cancer treatments to the trials and tribulations of discovering meaning in life; from c-myc to siRNA its all in here. The richness and uniqueness of this book is further augmented by the authors numerous intensely personal and luxurious color photographs of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the authors own personal sanctuary, that reveal the many, and often contradictory, moods of nature moods which mirror the ups and downs of human life itself.

In discussing works by major poets, including Paul Muldoon, Jo Shapcott and Christopher Reid, Cancer Poetry traces the complex ways in which poets represent cancer, and assesses how poetry can be instrumental to emotional recovery.

`I was a lost little boy, trapped in a world where I didn't belong, one that would tear me apart and build me back into someone new . . .' Twenty-three-year-old Josh Komen is on track to represent New Zealand in running at the next Commonwealth Games when he is diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. In a single moment, the course of his life has changed irrevocably. What follows are years of excrutiating pain, brutal treatments both in New Zealand and Australia, and shocking side-effects that send a young man to the brink of despair and back innumerable times. Ultimately, it is the enduring love of his close-knit family and friends, the incredible medical professionals who treat him, his spiritual beliefs, and his passion for nature that carry Josh through the hardest of challenges. The life lessons Josh gathers along the way are an inspiration for us all. This is an incredible story of courage, love and endurance.

According to the Bible, when Jesus walked on water, His disciple Peter wanted to join him. Peter did walk on water until he took account of the wind stirring up an angry sea; he sank because he could not put the upsetting sounds of thunder and lightning out of his fears. Cancer is like the storm that caused Peter to sink. The bad news overwhelms us, and though so many strides have been made toward the treatment of cancer, we focus on the bad news. It's almost impossible unless we learn to rely on what we do not hear and cannot always see, the workings of God in our lives. This little book was a gift from God to me during the forty days of Easter of 2012. I had a divine idea to write every day for forty days as my Lenten resolution. On Good Friday, it was finished. What emerged was God's gift to a sinking woman. It's not over until God says it's over, despite the prognosis.
