- Double-weighted statement
- The case for double-weighting rests on the author’s sustained research effort over seven years. The book is an extended, interdisciplinary and complex investigation of the theme of compassion in depth from multiple perspectives including clinical practice, theology, political philosophy and healthcare philosophy. To achieve its original critical insight, the investigation had to explore compassion within multiple different contexts including marketisation of healthcare, precision medicine, ageing, professionalism and problems of fault in healthcare. To this end, the research required extended immersion in healthcare environments such as NHS trusts, clinical trials settings and professional associations alongside management of complex health-related partnerships.
