Many Voices: Toward Caring Culture in Healthcare and Healing: Interpretive Studies in Healthcare and the Human Sciences, cartea 3

Editat de Kathryn H. Kavanagh, Virginia Knowlden
en Limba Engleză Hardback – iun 2004
Many Voices explores the relationships and the tensions at the intersection of caring in the context of health, and culture. As the social voices of diverse groups are increasingly acknowledged in healthcare, ideological frictions between goals of assimilation and of diversity and multiculturalism remain unsolved. Caring (or its opposite, neglect) mediates in health-related encounters in ways that are often described more rhetorically than realistically. Here are the issues as they are experienced.
