Special attention is given to the role of cultural expectations, particularly in bilingual and multicultural medical contexts. Using Hong Kong as a case study, the book explores its unique integration of Western and Chinese values to offer a comparative perspective applicable to other healthcare settings worldwide. It argues for the development of a culturally appropriate communication model, informed by clinicians’ insights, to enhance therapeutic relationships and ensure patient safety. This book is an essential resource for medical educators, healthcare professionals, doctors and nurses in training, medical students, health communication researchers, and scholars in applied linguistics and related fields.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003eJack Pun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e is an Associate Professor in the Department of English at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and a founding member of the Institute for Communication in Healthcare at the Australian National University.
