内容説明
This highly successful and well-established key introductory text for palliative care, is now in its fourth edition. It has been fully revised and updated throughout with greatly expanded sections on pruritis and lymphoedema, and covers more on ethics and communication and other aspects of psychological care. Introducing Palliative Care was developed from the author's training programme now used in many countries around the world; this new edition is an essential introduction for all professionals working within palliative care.
