Описание:

In this book the author explores the shifting philosophical boundaries of modern medical knowledge and practice occasioned by the crisis of quality-of-care, especially in terms of the various humanistic adjusагххвtments to the biomedical model To that end he examines the metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical boundaries of these medical models He begins with their metaphysics, analyzing the metaphysical positions and presuppositions and ontological commitments upon which агъюхmedical knowledge and practice is founded Next, he considers the epistemological issues that face these medical models, particularly those driven by methodological procedures undertaken by epistemic agents to constitute medical knowledge and practice Finally, he examines the axiological boundaries and the ethical implications of each model, especially in terms of the physician-patient relationship In a concluding Epilogue, he discusses how the philosophical analysis of the humanizaагькиtion of modern medicine helps to address the crisis-of-care, as well as the question of “What is medicine?”.
