Synopsis:
Textbook of Palliative Medicine provides an alternative, truly international approach to this rrapidly growning specialty. This textbook fills a niche with it evidence-based, multi-professional approach and global perspectives ensured by the international team of editors and contributing authors. In the absence of an international 'curriculum' for the study of palliative medicine, this textbook provides essential guidance for those both embarking upon a career in paliative medicine or already established in the field, and the structure and content have been constructed very much with this in mind. With an emphasis on providing a service anywhere in the world, including the important issue of palliative care in the developing nations, Textbook of Palliative Medicine offers a genuine alternative to the narrative approach of its competitiors, and is an ideal complement ot them. It is essential reading for all palliative care physicians in training and in practice, as well as palliative care nurses and other health profeesionals in the palliative care team.
