more than I expected,

This review is from: Narrative Based Medicine (Paperback)
This is really an excellent book. I previously bought The illness narratives by A. Kleinmann but I found it anecdotical, yet practical. This book definitivelly is worth its price, very practical, deeply reviewed and a must read for future generations
