Focusing on the nature of 'evidence' and 'effectiveness,' this book explores perspectives beyond traditional medicine, incorporating views from patients, complementary medicine, and midwifery. It delves into contemporary theoretical debates surrounding medical and health knowledge, offering critical analyses of how 'evidence' is produced, applied, and translated across various healthcare settings. This examination encourages a broader understanding of healthcare practices and the implications of different evidentiary frameworks.
