Reseña del editor:

Why, as our technology gets better, does much of our human contact and understanding get worse? How does this happen in our publicly accountable healthcare, and what is its cost? This anthology draws from nearly forty years’ writing that describes and dissects encounters on the frontline of the NHS. The complicated problems and situations are captured in language that is wry, lyrical and trenchant. Beneath the very wide range of subjects lie the basic questions of Welfare and social psychology: What do other people want and need? How do we (think we) know? Who decides, and how? This book’s unusual perspectives challenge many of our now dangerously sleep-walked maxims.

Biografía del autor:

David Zigmond initially trained in Medicine in the 1960s. For several decades he has worked in the NHS as a small-practice GP, and as a large hospital psychiatrist and psychotherapist. Alongside these he has maintained a practice as a private psychotherapist. From these long tenures he has explored the nature and importance of relationships, imagination and personal meaning throughout healthcare. These have fuelled and guided his view and practice of holistic medicine. His long-spanned teaching and writing have been committed to develop and secure these values. He helped launch the British Holistic Medical Association in the 1980s and has remained active in developing this approach. This book contains many of his contributions.
