Medical illness and positive life change

"The idea that people experience positive change through their struggles with adversity is not new - it appears in the oldest cultural traditions. However, only recently has this idea generated widespread empirical research attention." "This book examines these issues in depth and draws out their implications for research and clinical practice. Because medical illness has been one of the primary contexts in which researchers have studied the phenomenon of positive life change, this book focuses on how positive life change might be fostered in the context of medical illness."--BOOK JACKET.
