Trade Review

"More than two dozen authors have contributed to Without Compassion, There Is No Healthcare. They explore and champion the importance of compassion from many angles, including artificial intelligence, virtual care, patient engagement, equity, relationships, burnout, leadership, education, and systemic compassion. Our biggest challenge is to decode the foundational elements of health care that will remain true, now and after the pandemic, even if AI takes over specific tasks of delivering that work. This book is a must read." Canadian Journal of Physician Leadership


“… the contributors to Without Compassion, There Is No Healthcare make an expansive case that one commitment guiding the design and use of technology in health care must be compassion. Much work remains to contextualize the various meanings of and possibilities for the affectively rich topic of compassion. For those invested in this project and interested in the human dimensions of technology and health, [this book] provides a strong call for deepening these engagements.” H-Sci-Med-Tech
