Summary:"Increasingly, patients with breast cancer are participating in the surgical and or medical decisions about their treatment. This involvement raises ethical issues about the rights of patients and their ability to give informed consent, concerns about the process of communication between the medical staff and the patient, and also involves psychological issues relating not only to the woman with breast cancer, but also her doctor."--BOOK JACKET. "Written for the surgical, medical, and clinical oncologists who deal with breast cancer patients, and senior nurses in breast cancer units, this book will also be of interest to trainees and practising oncologists who are interested in shared decision-making in oncology generally."--Jacket.
