Wednesday morning was the launch of The Talking Cure. Faizal and I wrote the pamphlet to try to capture the changing conversations taking place between professionals and patients around health. The discussion at the launch was fascinating and impassioned. Howard Stoate gave us his perspective as the only practising GP in the House of Commons. Richard Horton was as thoughtful and fired up as ever. You can listen to all of the speeches, questions etc. here.
The pamphlet has been picked up by a few publications involved with questions of health, medicine and professionalism. The Pharmaceutical Journal picked up on our discussion of concordance and the changing role of pharmacists. We also have a podcasted discussion, and I have written a piece for Comment is free - attracting the usual agora/crucible backlash.
So please have a look at the pamphlet and let us know what you think.
