How are daily routines, personal identities, families, friends, and careers affected and rearranged after diagnosis and treatment? This book examines the unfinished business of having and handling heart disease. It looks at what happens to someone after a heart attack and how they get on with 'business as usual' in the wake of a medical crisis.
