Description

Explore the intersection of medicine and social justice in Medical Humanities, Sociology and the Suffering Self. Published by Routledge as part of the Routledge Advances in the Medical Humanities series, this work addresses the traditionally polarized views of human suffering. Lowe offers a compelling argument for using the medical humanities to bridge the gaps between biographical and epistemic perspectives. By looking into the nature and properties of suffering, this book examines what is truly at stake for both patients and providers. The text analyzes major healthcare workforce issues and the incidence of burnout to show how specific policies and practices shape healthcare education. Through the inclusion of first-person accounts, this book provides a deeper understanding of the experiences within the healthcare system. It is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the social sciences in a medical context, providing a way to look beyond traditional divides to understand the human experience of health and illness.
