“With over 11 million cancer survivors nationally, Dr. Kenneth Miller's book is a most welcome and needed resource for health care professionals, the generalist and specialist alike. This gem of a book is as comprehensive as it is practical and offers current information about the long term and late effects of cancer and its treatment - from medical problems and psychological issues to sexual health. Most importantly, the authors give us the very important message that cancer survivorship is more than surviving-it is a distinct period of life with a unique set of health care challenges. This book will help us assure that survivors achieve the highest quality of life possible.”

"Dr. Kenneth Miller has created essential reading for any professional who cares for cancer survivors. His unique perspective as a seasoned oncologist and committed husband to a cancer survivor has resulted in a no-nonsense cancer survivorship guide for physicians, nurses, and mental health professionals alike from a variety of perspectives. Essential material on psychosocial topics, medical issues, and epidemiology is presented clearly and thoroughly. This healing hero knows the science and the caring.”

"Dr. Kenneth Miller's book is the most encyclopedic approach to cancer survivorship to date.  He and his co-authors tackle all of the major issues of survivorship from the psychological, to the physical and all the ramifications of trying to move
one's life forward after a cancer diagnosis and the treatment that accompanies it.  The thoroughness of the approach, and the manner in which the topics are tied together sheds light on the issues a cancer survivor - the whole individual
- must deal with.  This is a must-have book for those interested in this ever more important area of medicine."

Lawrence Shulman, M.D.

“Dr. Kenneth Miller's Medical and Psychosocial Care of the Cancer Survivor is a landmark roadmap for clinicians who care for cancer survivors and researchers. The book is written by top experts in the field and presents the state of the art and science of survivorship.  It is an excellent book which reviews the medical needs of cancer survivors while sensitively discussing their psychosocial needs.  I highly recommend it.”
