Psychological Aspects of Life-Threatening Illness

Cover of Barbara Sourkes: The Deepening Shade (PDF)

<i>The Deepening Shade</i> is an elegant synthesis of the psychology of life-threatening illness. The book's evocative power derives from the interweaving of clinical conceptualization with the words of patients and family members. Rather than focusing on death, Sourkes explores <i>living</i> with a life-threatening illness.
