This book is written by Roxanne Parrott, an award-winning communicator and Professor whose work spans communication and public health fields. Talking About Health aims to explore the role and importance of communication about health in the present age, while putting emphasis on its impact it has on everyone's lives. The book is organized into six key context-specific questions which we all face concerning health communication which include: Being clear about my personal health status, identifying the obvious and hidden risks, having a clear understanding about whether the current healthcare scenarios are good for me, learning about the roles of public entities involved in the healthcare process through an ethical lens, from whom do I derive potential benefits, and finally understanding the relevance of political stances on healthcare and scrutiny into the evidence aspects of clinical practices. Through these rhetorical questions, Parrott makes valuable practical applications and provides readers with intuitions which could be useful when navigating through the health system. These ideas translate what you already know in the field of communication regarding public health and convert this knowledge into lean and usable policies for day-to-day utilisation. An interesting aspect is the discussion of a critical discourse on the matter, including discussions on politics, issues related to genetic testing and crucialness of the adoption of alternative healthcare options. Parrott's conversational blog site sheds light on why discussing health matters to our wellbeing and gives us the guidance to work towards a quality life.
