Table of Contents1: Writing the History of Emotions 2: Researching Cancer 3: Cancer Awareness 4: Talking about Cancer 5: Experiencing Cancer 6: Cancer and Emotions in the Twentieth CenturyReviewsHitzer's well produced and richly illustrated book is a welcome addition to the growing literature on the history of cancer, which has so far been dominated by studies of developments in the UK and North America. The book engages very productively with the existing historiography, and the approach focused on the history of emotions works extremely well. * Carsten Timmermann, Professor of History of Science, Technology & Medicine; Centre for theHistory of Science, Technology and Medicine (CHSTM), Division of MedicalEducation, The University of Manchester, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK, European Journal for the History of Medicine and Health * Author InformationBettina Hitzer is Heisenberg Fellow at the Hannah Arendt Institute for Totalitarianism Studies at the Technical University Dresden as well as Privatdozentin at Freie Universität Berlin, Germany.
