520 _aIntroducing Palliative Care (IPC5) is the ideal introductory text for training students in medicine and qualified healthcare professionals in the area of palliative care.

The clinical focus is on advanced cancer but the general principles and most of the details are equally applicable to patients dying from other incurable progressive life-threatening conditions.
