This book addresses the psychological, behavioural, emotional, and social issues that arise for cancer patients and their loved ones. It highlights how the existing stigma attached to cancer and associated mental illness constitutes major barriers to optimal psychosocial care of patients.

This volume features scholarly entries designed to help clinicians review, anticipate, and respond to emotional issues that often arise in the context of treating cancer patients. Numerous cross-references and succinct tables and figures make it easy to use even for non-medical practitioners. It assists care providers in meeting challenges through the latest findings from wider Indian perspectives of psychological and social issues related to cancer. The relevance of psycho-oncology at different stages of disease (during treatment, rehabilitation, and palliative end-of-life care), along with various psycho-oncological intervention methods, are also illustrated.
