Riveting interview with Dr. Kleinman: From psychiatrist to hands-on caregiver Dr. Kleinman is an American psychiatrist and a professor of medical anthropology and cross-cultural psychiatry at Harvard University. His new book, The Soul of Care: The Moral Education of a Husband and Doctor,” is out now with Penguin Random House. Here are some insights from our conversation: “I was previously unclear on how important the relationship was between doctors, family members, and people living with dementia.” “I really saw the failure of medicine.
