Book abstract of at will body reflections illness
In this deeply affecting memoir, Arthur W. Frank explores the events of illness from within: the transformation from
person to patient, the pain, the wonder,and the ceremony of recovery. To illuminate what illness can teach us about
life, Frank draws upon his own encounters with serious illness -- a heart attack at age thirty-nine and, a year later, a
diagnosis of cancer. In poignant and clear prose, he offers brilliant insights into what happens when our bodies and
emotions are pushed to extremes. Ultimately, he examines what it means to be human.
