About this ebook

This comprehensive book celebrates the coming of age of narrative in health care. It uses narrative to go beyond the patient's story and address social, cultural, ethical, psychological, organizational and linguistic issues.

This book has been written to help health professionals and social scientists to use narrative more effectively in their everyday work and writing.

The book is split into three, comprehensive sections; Narratives, Counter-narratives and Meta-narratives.
