Written for health professionals - but accessible to all - each chapter offers insight into how it feels to be a vulnerable patient. Poignant and provocative, this unique book highlights the patient and family experience and includes practical wisdom to inspire us all." - BOOK JACKET; "Bird's Eye View should be on every health care training curriculum.
