Abstract:

Dialogues of the Clinic: Encounters across medicine and beyond is a
unique anthology that centers dialogue as practice and challenge of
medical encounters, taking up Mishler's famous provocation of a
dichotomy between the voice of the lifeworld and the voice of
medicine, or an awareness of the asymmetries of knowledge and
authority in clinical encounters.
First, the authors in this book aim to define dialogue beyond
interaction and to conduct a close analysis of empirical data from
clinical consultations as diverse as visits in oncology, pediatrics,
psychotherapy, medical student training, and speech language therapy.
In doing so, they argue for the many possibilities and missed
opportunities for clinicians in diverse cultural settings to engage
dialogically, while constantly managing the multiple contingencies of
personal, organizational, and institutional voices, texts, and
artifacts. Dialogue and discourse scholars, clinical practitioners,
and academics from the humanities and social sciences will appreciate
this collection on how to approach dialogue conceptually and
empirically, in clinical practice.
