Synopsis
Jerome Groopman shares what he has learned from 30 years of practicing medicine about hope and how it functions in sick people--and how difficult it is for a doctor to walk the line between optimism and false hope. The patients he writes about range from the hopeless to those in severe denial, and they include himself as he writes about his own experience with chronic pain--which abated when he learned to let himself have some hope.
