    • Español
    Una sólida herramienta que aporta a los lectores valiosos conocimientos sobre los procesos psicológicos y sociológicos, fundamentales para proporcionar una atención personalizada. Este libro es extremadamente relevante para el currículo y la práctica médica actual, donde se hace cada vez más hincapié en el lugar que ocupa la medicina en la sociedad y en la enfermedad como producto de las circunstancias psicológicas y sociales, más que como un mero fenómeno biológico. Los temas se presentan resumidos visualmente en una doble página. Se acompañan con casos que refuerzan la comprensión de los conceptos fundamentales y con cuadros resumen y cuestiones para la reflexión. Ayuda a apreciar el lado "no científico" de la medicina; lo importante que es entender de dónde viene el paciente, geográfica e ideológicamente. Además, el libro aborda a la perfección temas tan actuales, como las dificultades sociales derivadas de las pruebas genéticas.
