Description and Table of Contents

Description

The study of psychology and behavioural sciences now form an important component of nursing and health care courses due to recent changes in the health education system. The relationships and practices which constitute effective care are influenced by social psychological ideas, and this book provides a basic introduction to these ideas. It is well supported by the frequent use of examples which focus upon the processes that sustain carer/patient relationships.
