Opis

Bringing together recent international research in the field of hospital communication and interaction, the contributors to this book contextualize clinical professional work by focussing on the rising intensity of information and communication practices in organizations generally, and in health care in particular.

Recenzje

'This thought-provoking book is a sophisticated compilation of research and provides excellent examples of ethnographic designs. It would be ideal as a text in academic programmes for professionals to develop the awareness of health care as a profoundly interdisciplinary activity.' - Lela M. Holden, Journal of Advanced Nursing
