5.0 out of 5 stars
learn to be with the patients,
This review is from: The Patient:Biological, Psychological and Social Dimensions of Medical Practice (Hardcover)
This is a good book for health professionals to read. To learn to be with the patients, it is necessary to read this book first to acquire the understanding of the positions the patients take, the process they go through, the ways they are--the personality types. This is my favorite book on these topics.
