Description: The Boring Patient by R. David Lankes Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book is not about cancer. It is about how David Lankes, professor and father, responded to being diagnosed, living with, and being treated for cancer. That is an important distinction because cancer is not funny. Cancer sucks. Cancer does not teach, cancer does not preach, cancer does not comfort, or inspire, or inform. Cancer kills. How one responds to cancer? That is a completely different matter. In this cross between memoir, case study, and a lecture, Lankes takes the reader on a humor ladened trip through a Hodgkins Lymphoma diagnosis, chemotherapy, and ultimately a bone marrow transplant (technically an autologous stem cell transplant). This book is for others living through a journey with cancer. and those in the business of delivering health care like doctors, med students, nurses, and medical administrators. Author Biography R. David Lankes is a professor and Deans Scholar for the New Librarianship at Syracuse Universitys School of Information Studies and director of the Information Institute of Syracuse. His book, The Atlas of New Librarianship won the 2012 ABC-CLIO/Greenwood Award for the Best Book in Library Literature.
