Care in Practice

This volume provides new perspectives of healthcare which no longer oppose human care and the use of technology. Instead, it points out the mutual pervasions of health care practice and technology.

»Ein Buch, das [...] zum richtigen Zeitpunkt in die Debatte gekommen ist.«

»This book illustrates an inspiring path towards the questions how care produces or creates its objects, bodies, patients and carers; and how care incorporates knowledge and technologies.«
