Features: The doctor-patient relationship refers to the interpersonal relationship formed between medical personnel on one side and patients and their families on the other during medical activities. The harmony and smoothness of this interpersonal relationship are not only the conditions for medical personnel to carry out medical treatment smoothly but also the premise or foundation for maintaining and promoting patient recovery. Therefore, the doctor-patient relationship is a central issue and core content of research in disciplines such as medical ethics. Currently, there is still a lack of specialized ethical works on doctor-patient relationships in China. This book systematically elaborates on the relevant issues of doctor-patient relationships on the basis of combining theory with practice. What is particularly noteworthy is that the author, with a keen perspective, grasps the challenges of doctor-patient relationships: communication and mediation in doctor-patient conflicts. The book not only provides a theoretical analysis of this issue but also maintains a profound focus on practical problems. Its content is rich, well-organized, and offers fresh perspectives, making it a significant work in the study of doctor-patient relationships in China. Its publication will undoubtedly help medical personnel, medical ethics educators, hospital administrators, and others to gain a deeper understanding of this unique interpersonal relationship between doctors and patients. It holds important guiding and reference value for improving the current tense state of doctor-patient relationships and preventing the occurrence and escalation of doctor-patient conflicts.
