I just read my e-mail and was surprised and delighted to read two mentions of my work. In addition to the two books that Linda Caraway mentioned, you might also be interested in some of my "On Call" articles. While I haven't yet written specifically about your question -- "Oral Communication with Low-Literate patients" -- I have many articles about speaking and listening. Recent ones include: * "Mind what you say...Speaking and listening to older adults," On Call, June 2001. * "Know when to speak and when to listen...Communicating with people who are anxious or angry," On Call, August 2001. * "From another point of view... A patient's perspective about health communication," On Call, March 2002. * "Narrative power...Using stories in healthcare communication," On Call, May 2002 * " It's like what you already know... Using analogies to help patients understand," On Call, January 2003. You can find the full text of these and other articles on my Health Literacy Consulting Web site at www.healthliteracy.com and click on "articles." While you're there -- take a peek and let me know what you think about the new Website look and logo. Hope this helps.
