  It has long been recognized that a substantial proportion of the problems that bring patients to general practice are asociated with stress, relationships and psychological or psychosomatic responses to difficulties in their lives. This book should help all those in the primary care team to examine their role as counsellors to their patients or as the gateway to other counselling services. The authors - who include those working in medicine, nursing, social work, psychology, sociology, social policy and economics - examine the different points of view regarding the position of counselling in primary care and which team members are the most appropriate counsellors.
