SUMMARY:The Soul of Care with Arthur Kleinman | Archives Talk
DESCRIPTION:\nJoin psychiatrist\, social anthropologist\, and author Dr. 
 Arthur Kleinman for an author talk\, Q&A\, and book signing. The Soul of 
 Care is a moving memoir and an extraordinary love story that shows how an 
 expert physician became a family caregiver and learned why care is so 
 central to all our lives and yet is at risk in today’s world.\n\nWhen Dr. 
 Arthur Kleinman\, an eminent Harvard psychiatrist and social 
 anthropologist\, began caring for his wife\, Joan\, after she was diagnosed 
 with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease\, he found just how far the act of 
 caregiving extended beyond the boundaries of medicine. In The Soul of Care: 
 The Moral Education of a Husband and a Doctor\, Kleinman delivers a deeply 
 humane and inspiring story of his life in medicine and his marriage to 
 Joan\, and he describes the practical\, emotional and moral aspects of 
 caretaking. He also writes about the problems our society faces as medical 
 technology advances and the cost of health care soars but caring for 
 patients no longer seems important.\n\n\nSpeaker\n\nArthur Kleinman\, MD\, 
 is one of the most renowned and influential scholars and writers on 
 psychiatry\, anthropology\, global health\, and cultural issues in 
 medicine. Educated at Stanford University and Stanford Medical School\, he 
 has taught at Harvard for over forty years. He is currently professor of 
 psychiatry and of medical anthropology at Harvard Medical School and Esther 
 and Sidney Rabb Professor of Anthropology in Harvard’s Faculty of Arts 
 and Sciences. Having spent decades doing field research in China and 
 Taiwan\, he is also a leading expert on East Asia\, and was the Victor and 
 William Fung Director of Harvard’s Asia Center from 2008 to 2016. He is 
 also the author of The Illness Narratives: Suffering\, Healing\, and the 
 Human Condition\, now widely taught in medical schools. He is a member of 
 the National Academy of Medicine and of the American Academy of Arts and 
 Sciences.\n\nIntroduction by\n\nVincanne Adams\, PhD\, Professor of Medical
