The book The Psychological Variables in Human Cancer: A Symposium by Joseph Anthony Gengerelli is a collection of essays and research papers that explore the relationship between psychological factors and the development and progression of cancer in humans. The book is organized into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the topic.The first section provides an overview of the psychological variables that have been identified as potential risk factors for cancer, including stress, depression, anxiety, and personality traits such as hostility and pessimism. The second section delves into the role of social support and coping mechanisms in cancer patients, while the third section examines the psychological impact of cancer diagnosis and treatment on patients and their families.The fourth section of the book explores the potential benefits of psychological interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy and relaxation techniques, in improving cancer patients' quality of life and even potentially enhancing their survival rates. The final section of the book discusses the ethical considerations involved in conducting research on the psychological aspects of cancer, including issues related to informed consent and confidentiality.Overall, The Psychological Variables in Human Cancer: A Symposium provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the complex relationship between psychological factors and cancer, and offers valuable insights into potential avenues for future research and treatment.Contributing Authors Include Max Cutler, Joseph A. Weinberg, Philip M. West, And Many Others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
