While technological and biomedical breakthroughs have provided a remarkable array of tests, equipment, drugs, and procedures for diagnosing and treating acute diseases, modern medicine and professional health practices have not taken the same strides in the more human aspects of care. Emotional and Interpersonal Dimensions of Health Services considers ways modern health care practices could benefit from paying more attention to the "science of care."
