Description

Explore a profound study of human relations and healthcare in Passage Through Crisis: Polio Victims and Their Families. Published by Routledge, this work is based on an in-depth study of fourteen families dealing with the impact of paralytic poliomyelitis. Originally released in 1963, the book earned praise for its innovative analysis of how doctors and patients communicate during medical crises. This edition includes a new opening essay by Davis, providing modern reflections on the long-standing challenges in human relations and the shifts in American healthcare culture. Readers will gain insight into how physical disability is interpreted within American society and how these social structures affect both patients and their loved ones. It is a significant resource for those studying medical sociology, anthropology, and the history of healthcare communication.
