Helps clinicians sharpen their interviewing skills, with some 120 samples of actual interviews highlighting both good and bad technique. Offers advice in an informal style on dealing with demanding or dependent patients, too-talkative or too-reticent patients, pediatric and geriatric patients, and patients from different languages and cultures. Also discusses the interview in the managed-care environment, the use of questionnaires and interactive computer programs, and talking with patients and family about death and dying.
