Rezensionen
"This book is designed to help practitioners assess, anticipate, and respond to the emotional issues that arise in children and adolescents being treated for cancer. ...

There are not many books that encompass the breadth of psychosocial care in pediatric oncology as this one does. This is a great addition to any pediatric oncology practitioner's library."
