The book deals from a medical history and ethical point of view with the relationship between the doctor and the healthcare workers-patient, and on the other side the patient. The author traces the evolution of this important relationship in the history of medicine: from a paternalistic relationship to patient self-determination. The focus of this relationship is linked to end-of-life with particular attention to taking care of patient in a very difficult period with full attention, with full dignity. The author’s choice of a multidisciplinary approach is very interesting to dealing with the different topics and the marked and continuous recourse to Medical Humanities about medical training and healthcare workers training is a new approach to relations with doctors, patients, healthcare workers and health institutions.
