On the Politics of Ignorance in Nursing and Health Care: Knowing Ignorance - Routledge Key Themes in Health and Society
Perron, Amelie (University of Ottawa, Canada)
In health care, knowledge is a self-evident good, reducing risk in care provision. This book discusses how ignorance, often overlooked, can be productive in itself. It discusses "nonknowledges" such as uncertainty, doubt and deceit, helping to unpack the power situated in the use of ignorance in nursing practice.
