Summary: Belongs in every doctor's coat pocket.
Comment: Here's a 'Field Guide' destined to become dog-eared from regular use. Consider Patient X who gets mad, no matter what you do; Family B whose mother died unexpectedly on the operating table; or Patient A who can't quite commit to taking blood pressure meds. You'll find ways to better communicate with them -- or any of your patients for that matter.

Sneak a peek into the Guide's Table of Contents to find tips for specific encounters. In just 90 seconds of reading, you can learn enough to get through an impasse. If you do nothing more than learn how to use the "Pearls" at the end of each chapter, your work will be easier. --Mary K. Kouri, Ph.D. Editor, "Quality Improvement/Total Quality Management" newsletter

Rating: 5
Summary: An excellent "how-to" of challenging medical interviews
Comment: This Field guide is a concise paperback full of pithy one-page descriptions of challenging patients along with suggested solutions, including the exact words one might use to "unstick" an interview that is stuck. Many of these vignettes will be familiar to the medical professional, including the list-bringer, the narcotic abuser, etc. However, it is notable that many of these techniques are applicable to conversations throughout our daily lives. A must for medical professionals and students who find interviewing a "lost art" and want to learn basic as well as advanced techniques for self-improvement.
