Clinical Reasoning: Rhymes, Reflection, and Reason (EPUB)

Description

By Steve Nawoor
Clinical Reasoning: Rhymes, Reflection, and Reason offers a compelling and original exploration of how clinicians think, feel, and decide in the context of musculoskeletal and primary care practice. Blending the structure of evidence-based models with the depth of reflective practice, and the creativity of original poetry, this book guides readers through the art and science of clinical reasoning.
Drawing from ancient medical philosophies, contemporary neuroscience, and real-world challenges, it unpacks the hidden layers behind decision-making, diagnostic uncertainty, red flags, therapeutic alliance, and more. From systems thinking to ethical reasoning, communication to supervision, the book offers a grounded, compassionate, and multidimensional view of clinical care.
Each chapter is written in an engaging, narrative style, weaving together conceptual insights, practical tools, real case examples, and verse. Whether you are an allied health professional, first contact practitioner, student, educator, or clinician seeking to reflect more deeply on your work, this book offers inspiration, structure, and insight.
You’ll explore topics including:

The evolution of clinical reasoning from ancient roots to modern practice.
The interplay of bias, systems thinking, and uncertainty in everyday decisions.
How to integrate communication, collaboration, and cultural competence into care.
Realistic examples and reflections that mirror the complexity of practice.
Original poems that highlight the emotional and human dimensions of clinical life.

Written with warmth, clarity, and practical relevance, this book bridges knowledge and meaning, supporting clinicians not just in what they think, but how and why they think the way they do.
Let this be your companion for thoughtful, compassionate, and curious clinical reasoning.
