Stories Matter: The Role of Narrative in Medical Ethics
Rita Charon & Martha Montello (eds.)
Routledge (2002)
| Abstract | The doctor patient relationship starts with a story. Doctors' notes, a patient's chart, the recommendations of ethics committees and insurance justifications all hinge on written and verbal narrative interaction. The "practice" of narrative profoundly affects decision making, patient health and treatment and the everyday practice of medicine. In this edited collection, the contributors provide conceptual foundations, practical guidelines and theoretical considerations central to the practice of narrative ethics. | |||||||||
