'Physicians generally are blessed with and educated to have many skills but unfortunately effective communications skills and the ability to write clearly often seem to be missing from their list of abilities. Editor David Woods addresses these absent or weakly developed skills with humor and the insight of a gifted writer in this collection of physician communication advice. There is something for everyone here and no reader of this wonderful witty and thought provoking collection will fail to gain insight into how to improve his or her communication skills with patients and others.
David Woods and his co-contributors present us with a wonderful menu of delicacies a sumptuous communication feast guaranteed to satisfy the appetite of every physician who wishes to become a better communicator. The contributors' distinctive writing styles only add to this collection's diverse flavors. It is a book to be dipped into and savored piece by piece and need not be read from cover-to-cover in one sitting.' John J Gartland Medical Editor Thomas Jefferson University Philadelphia
