Editorial Reviews
Review
“Both undergraduate and graduate nurses are the intended audience for this book although any healthcare professional wanting to explore issues surrounding patient interactions will find it beneficial….With 313 pages this paperback holds a lot of information that has been honed and developed over sixteen years…This said, there is plenty of good thought provoking material which will challenge even the most talented communicators.”
