Word of Mouth
Today on Word of Mouth, new takes on elder care. Dr. Denis McCullough advocates for “slow medicine,” a mix of long-term planning and justification for every drug and procedure. Plus, a new device uses sunlight to make water drinkable in a Kenyan slum. And we meet a playwright who’s adapting interviews with Iraqi refugees into a new theatrical work. Plus, bloggers write first-person accounts of the violence in Georgia.
