Textbook of Palliative Medicine

An alternative, truly international approach to this rapidly growing specialty

This book fills a niche with its evidence-based, multi-professional approach and global perspective ensured by the international team of editors and contributing authors. In the absence of an international curriculum for the study of palliative medicine, this textbook provides essential guidance for those both embarking upon a career in palliative medicine or who are already established in the field.

With an emphasis on providing a service anywhere in the world, including the important issue of palliative care in the developing nations, the book offers a genuine alternative to the narrative approach of its competitors, and is an ideal complement to them. It is essential reading for all palliative care physicians in training and in practice, as well as palliative care nurses and other health professionals in the palliative care team
