What They're Saying About The Journal...

"...a comprehensive interdisciplinary publication very relevant to human nature. Regardless of one’s expertise, there is something from which an individual can benefit. The articles are easy to read and should be used as often as possible in academic settings and in seminars with smaller focus groups. The Journal is ideal for students in medical school and special attention should be made regarding ethics."

"The articles written within this journal are intellectually stimulating and very thought provoking as it relates to how we practice medicine, how we treat our fellow humans and even how we relate to pain and suffering. I am immediately reminded in each edition of the need to teach our students how to be responsive to the world around us, understanding that not everyone is on the same playing field."

"...deeply reminds us on every page...of a higher, more human moral perspective.....of a better way of seeing and being with our patients and each other. Cover to cover, each bite, of every single edition is simply inspirational. See for yourself."

"An amazing variety of fascinating topics discussed in well-written articles, this journal is true to its name."

".....uniquely successful in highlighting the interdisciplinary and very human nature of the ongoing transformation of our nation’s health care system, especially the unprecedented changes that patients, providers, and policy experts are experiencing…..truly visionary in reflecting the complexity of 21 st century healthcare."

"Having spent 18 years working in bioethics at the Center for Practical Bioethics, I can only laud the efforts expended to investigate a range of issues bursting with the potential for analysis…..a fascinating, fact-filled publication waiting for your reading pleasure and profit."

"…..a crucial resource for our time, especially where those in need and in poor health suffer because of health disparities and systemic inequities. The Journal presents the highest level of scholarship in the area of healthcare, but is exceptional because it exudes a profound caring dimension that focuses on the human element."

"Humanity is known for its creativity, innovation and physical, emotional and intellectual strength. But at the same time humanity is also characterised by its vulnerability, fragility and need for care. The Journal of Health and Human Experience navigates the reader to be sensitive for the latter and guides how to deal with it."
