SUMMARY:A Political Mind Special - Being ill
DESCRIPTION:\n \n \n Being ill\n \n Prof Neil Vickers and Prof
  Derek Bolton&nbsp\;\n \n Chair and discussant:&nb
 sp\;Phil Stokoe&nbsp\;\n \n Tuesday 28th January 2
 025\n 8:15pm - 9.45pm (GMT)\n \n Online via zoom\n
  Recording available for 1 week\n \n \n Why do we 
 retreat from other people&#39\;s illnesses &amp\; 
 how well do we look after people who are seriously
  sick?\n \n A serious illness often changes the wa
 y others see us. Few\, if any\, relationships rema
 in the same. The sick become more dependent on par
 tners and family members\, while more distant cont
 acts become strained. The carers of the ill are al
 so often isolated. This book focuses on our sense 
 of self when ill and how infirmity plays out in ou
 r relationships with others.\n \n Prof Neil Vicker
 s and Prof Derek Bolton offer an original perspect
 ive\, drawing on neuroscience\, psychology and psy
 choanalysis\, as well as memoirs of the ill or the
 ir carers\, to reveal how a sense of connectedness
  and group belonging can not only improve care\, b
 ut make societies more resilient to illness.&nbsp\
