Living with Lymphoma : A Patient's Guide

When neurobiologist Elizabeth M. Adler was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, she learned everything she could about the disease, both to cope with the emotional stress of being diagnosed and to make sure she made the best possible decisions for her treatment.

In "Living with Lymphoma", she combines her knowledge of lymphoma - both scientific and personal - with the desire to help other patients come to grips with this complex, and often baffling, disease.

In the introduction, Dr. Michael R. Bishop of the National Institutes of Health provides a physician's perspective on the delicate nature of doctor-patient relationships in the context of a life-threatening disease.

Drawing on her scientific expertise and personal journey - as well as her empathy, passion, and humor - Adler has created a valuable guide for people with lymphoma and the people caring for them.
