This book presents a comprehensive analysis of the use of
patient-/person-centred communication in providing healthcare for
ageing populations through an ethnographic approach to physician
in-home medical consultations in Tokyo, Japan, alongside interviews
with physicians. It focuses on illustrating how linguistic
dimensions of person-centred communication work by citing examples
of case studies, as well as the sociocultural differences between
the US, the UK, Japan and other societies in which person-centred
communication models are employed. The author uses her own
framework, which takes into account face and politeness theory, and
makes recommendations for future training.
