Knowing Ignorance

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In health care, knowledge is a self-evident good, reducing risk in care provision. This book discusses how ignorance, often overlooked, can be productive in itself. It discusses "nonknowledges" such as uncertainty, doubt and deceit, helping to unpack the power situated in the use of ignorance in nursing practice.
