Description

Therapeutic Pluralism: Exploring the Experiences of Cancer Patients and Professionals offers a deep look into the rising use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). As cancer patients become the most frequent users of these therapies, understanding their motivations is important for modern healthcare. This book examines the gap between patient needs and the perspectives of medical staff within the NHS and UK cancer services. Based on extensive fieldwork throughout the UK, this study provides a detailed look at why patients choose CAM and what benefits they perceive. By including over 120 interviews with both patients and healthcare professionals, the text provides a well-rounded view of the current therapeutic landscape. It is a valuable resource for those studying the sociology of medicine, healthcare delivery, or the evolving relationship between traditional oncology and alternative practices.
