“The Oxford Handbook of Palliative Care covers the specialty in a concise and succinct format suited to busy professionals who need to access key information in their daily care of patients. This practical guide covers briefly the historical and epidemiological background of palliative care, and the growth of palliative medicine as a specialty, before dealing with major physical, psychological and spiritual, and symptom management issues, from diagnosis to bereavement care.” The Oxford Handbook of Palliative Care will prove invaluable for doctors, nurses, and professionals allied to medicine who are involved in the day-to-day care of adults, children, and families with palliative care needs.
