Catherine Theodosius

Emotional Labour in Health Care

The unmanaged heart of nursing

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Based on original empirical research and narratives from qualified nurses, this book introduces the concept of emotional labour and its historical and political context. It provides an original, but easily recognisable typology, and emphasizes that it is a complex, messy, opaque emotion that drives emotional labour within the healthcare setting.
