The Philosophy of Medicine: A Routledge Companion
GUARANTEED SAFE CHECKOUT
The Routledge Companion to Philosophy of Medicine is a comprehensive guide to topics in the fields of epistemology and metaphysics of medicine. Traditional topics such as the concept of disease, causality in medicine, the epistemology of the randomized controlled trial, the biopsychosocial model, explanation, clinical judgment and phenomenology of medicine are examined, as are emerging topics such as philosophy of epidemiology, measuring harms, the concept of disability, nursing perspectives, race and gender, the metaphysics of Chinese medicine, and narrative medicine. There are 48 chapters in total, each written specifically for this volume and with a student audience in mind. For pedagogy and clarity, each chapter includes an extended example illustrating the ideas discussed.
This text is intended to be used as a reference for students in courses in philosophy of medicine and philosophy of science. It pairs well with The Routledge Companion to Bioethics for use in medical humanities and social science courses.
