Originally published in 1985, Caring offers an account of the experiences of carers across the United Kingdom, spanning all ages and diverse backgrounds, as they care for disabled relatives. Through their own testimonies and direct storytelling, carers illustrate their lives in ways far more impactful than any second-hand interpretation. The editors skillfully weave these firsthand accounts into a broader context, providing deeper insight into the challenges and realities of caregiving. This book is an essential resource for students and researchers in health and social care, while also appealing to general readers interested in the subject.
