Collaborative Practice in Palliative Care explores how different professions work collaboratively across professional, institutional, social, and cultural boundaries to enhance palliative care. Analysing palliative care as an interaction between different professionals, clients, and carers, and the social context or community within which the interaction takes place, it is grounded in up-to-date evidence, includes global aspects of palliative care and cultural diversity as themes running throughout the book, and is replete with examples of good and innovative practice. Drawing on experiences from within traditional specialist palliative care settings like hospices and community palliative care services, as well as more generalist contexts of the general hospital and primary care, this practical text highlights the social or public health model of palliative care. Designed to support active learning, it includes features such as case studies, summaries, and pointers to other learning resources. This text is an important reference for all professionals engaged in palliative care, particularly those studying for post-qualification programmes in the area.

Over the years, Helen and Dr. Gordon Brown have been regularly dedicated to a long and arduous process that attempted to evolve their beloved profession of chiropractic in a direction that was congruent with their shared vision of subluxation-centered care. Most personal and professional challenges that are worthy of a lifetime commitment require a tremendous amount of dedication, perseverance and courage. What the Browns set out to accomplish in chiropractic, throughout their lives, would be no exception to this rule. The challenges, threats and setbacks that these chiropractic mavericks would encounter and eventually conquer would ultimately create a pathway for other chiropractors to follow. The Browns' commitment to their profession would also indirectly help many of the chiropractors within their generation, as well as doctors of today, to be able to practice with a state issued license.
