This text examines the many ways that narrative methods of analysis and interpretation are transforming the work of medicine and ethics. This edited collection provides conceptual foundations, guidelines and theory central to narrative ethics.
First published in 2002. 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.
