Summary:In this far-ranging textbook on palliative and end of life care, John Costello and a team of palliative care specialists take a patient-centred approach.

Original in its approach to palliative and end of life care, Adult Palliative Care focuses on a range of non-cancer conditions. Thoughtfully balancing theory with practice, and interprofessional in its scope, Adult Palliative Care would benefit any health professional dealing with or working in the field of palliative and end of life care.
