This book is an excellent introduction into the art and practice of Mindfulness based training, suitable for both practitioners and patients. It offers a well-sequenced approach with concrete instructions. The approach is put into context by describing earlier work carried out by others, in particular Kabat-Zinn, and by the authors own experience of practicing this approach themselves. It has three major sections, the first provides definitions and clarifies the place of mindfulness-based training into the cancer care environment. The second offers  step-by-step instructions on how to actually conduct the intervention. Lastly, the third is a mix of related topics.
