At some point in our lives, we will all have the experience of caring for another person, or of being cared for ourselves. But what exactly is 'care', and what do we mean by 'good' care? How do aspects of our identity influence our experience of caring or being cared for? And how can ideas, theories and the findings from academic research, help us to think more care-fully - and to care more thoughtfully? Careful Thinking explores these and similar questions, inspired by a belief that thinking critically about care can both deepen our understanding and improve the day-to-day practice of care. In each episode of the podcast, you'll hear an in-depth conversation with a researcher, writer or practitioner at the cutting edge of current thinking about care.
