In the bewildering days after diagnosis of a severe disease, patients learn two daunting facts: One, no doctor has all the answers, and two, there are no answers, only odds. For readers (and their families) who want to be involved in the key choices regarding treatment, Dr. Schneider is the ideal guide. A climate scientist, his life's work is decision making in the face of great uncertainty. This important book is both his own gripping story of working with his doctors to get the best treatment possible, and also a brilliant critique of the flawed system under which doctors must now operate. "Receiving a diagnosis of cancer can bring out the best or the worst in patients.... For Stephen H. Schneider, Ph.D. it brought out the fighter.... The story is compelling.... It offers a number of positive and useful messages for patients enduring chemotherapy, radiation, and other cancer treatments." (Journal of the American Medical Association) "Compelling...a frightening medical adventure." (Donald Kennedy, Ph.D., Editor-in-Chief of Science)

Keep Listening is a compelling patient memoir, charting the writer's journey to ""hell and back"" following the birth of her second child. It describes in candid detail the negligent care afforded to her by the medics involved in that birth, her subsequent ill health and near death and the impact of that on the writer, her family, her career and her finances. The writer dedicates the book to her late father, an eminent surgeon, whose mantra was to tell his medical students to ""always listen to the patient."" The book reads more like a suspense ridden novel than a memoir and is a frank and emotionally charged account of her journey which exposes the failings of both the public and private health care systems in the UK. The author is donating 10% of her profits from sales of this book to medicins sans frontieres."

The Silent Patient by way of Stephen King: Parker, a young, overconfident psychiatrist new to his job at a mental asylum, miscalculates catastrophically when he undertakes curing a mysterious and profoundly dangerous patient. In a series of online posts, Parker H., a young psychiatrist, chronicles the harrowing account of his time working at a dreary mental hospital in New England. Through this internet message board, Parker hopes to communicate with the world his effort to cure one bewildering patient. We learn, as Parker did on his first day at the hospital, of the facility's most difficult, profoundly dangerous case--a forty-year-old man who was originally admitted to the hospital at age six. This patient has no known diagnosis. His symptoms seem to evolve over time. Every person who has attempted to treat him has been driven to madness or suicide. Desperate and fearful, the hospital's directors keep him strictly confined and allow minimal contact with staff for their own safety, convinced that releasing him would unleash catastrophe on the outside world. Parker, brilliant and overconfident, takes it upon himself to discover what ails this mystery patient and finally cure him. But from his first encounter with the mystery patient, things spiral out of control, and, facing a possibility beyond his wildest imaginings, Parker is forced to question everything he thought he knew. Fans of Sarah Pinborough's Behind Her Eyes and Paul Tremblay's The Cabin at the End of the World will be riveted by Jasper DeWitt's astonishing debut.

A young Jewish doctor prays to a coma patient's Blessed Mother on Christmas Eve, only to have the woman suddenly awakened; there is the voice that tells a too-busy ER doctor to stop a patient walking out, discovering an embolus that would have killed him. The late-night passing of a beloved aunt summons a childhood bully who shows up minutes later, after twenty-five years, to be forgiven and to heal a broken doctor. This ER doctor finds God's opposite in: a battered child's bruises covered over by make-up, a dying patient whose son finally shows up at the end to reclaim the man's high-top sneakers, the rich or celebrity patients loaded with prescription drugs from doctor friends who end up addicted. But, his real outrage is directed at our cavalier treatment of the elderly, If you put a G-tube in your 80-year-old mother with Alzheimer's because she's no longer eating, you will probably have a fast track to hell.

The Red Devil is a bold, wickedly funny tale of illness, joy, and the improbable triumph of love in the midst of despair. When Katherine Russell Rich was thirty-two, a newly divorced, high-powered magazine editor living a glamorous life in New York City, her ten-year (and still counting) ordeal with cancer began. Soon she was bald, scrambled, and living in two worlds simultaneously: the world of the ill, filled with treatments, exhaustion, and doctors as focused on avoiding malpractice suits as on healing; and the "normal" world, where dating, career, vacations, and 401(k) plans still matter. Alternately wise and wise-cracking, Rich serves up vignettes from the surreal world only the ill know: the MS patient who crashes her support group, the alternative practitioner whose gifts come from extraterrestrials, the doctor who fires her patient, dating while bald, working without a brain, and smoking with cancer. Here is a woman who has been brought to her knees by disease several times, only to get up and learn to dance, with grace, even.

This book portrays the perspective of a prostate cancer patient to other patients, their families, and acquaintances.It is not a medical or scientific text, and it is plain and easy to understand. Prostate cancer is the most common among men, right after skin cancer. It is essential that everyone, after a certain age, perform periodic examinations to ensure that, in case a prostate cancer is detected, it is as early as possible. Why? What is the prostate, and what is its function? What happens to a man without a prostate? How does the diagnosis of cancer work? What are its steps? If the cancer is confirmed, how is the treatment process? What are the emotions that arise? What are the fears? What are the possible consequences? What are the treatments? How does prostatectomy work? All these answers and some others are in this book with the view of a patient of prostate cancer. It explains the journey from the investigation, through diagnosis, treatment, and healing. Some suggestions are presented by the author, resulting from his learning about the whole process. For whom can this book be useful? For all who seek better information about prostate cancer, the importance of its early diagnosis, and its treatment. For those who are diagnosed with prostate cancer, finding information and some critical answers, to which I, the author, would like to have had access to when I discovered that I had cancer. For relatives and friends of a patient, who can understand the feelings that can arise with the disease, to deal better with the situation.
