- The way ofmedicine: ethics and the healing profession.Farr A. Curlin -2021 - Notre Dame, IN: University of Notre Dame Press. Edited by Christopher Tollefsen.Today'smedicine is spiritually deflated and morally adrift; this book explains why and offers an ethical framework to renew and guide practitioners in fulfilling their profession to heal. What ismedicine and what is it for? What does it mean to be a good doctor? Answers to these questions are essential both to the practice ofmedicine and to understanding the moral norms that shape that practice. The Way ofMedicine articulates and defends an account of (...)medicine and medical ethics meant to challenge the reigning provider of services model, in which clinicians eschew any claim to know what is good for a patient and instead offer an array of "health care services" for the sake of the patient's subjective well-being. Against this trend, Farr Curlin and Christopher Tollefsen call for practitioners to recover what they call the Way ofMedicine, which offers physicians both a path out of the provider of services model and also the moral resources necessary to resist the various political, institutional, and cultural forces that constantly push practitioners and patients into thinking of their relationship in terms of economic exchange. Curlin and Tollefsen offer an accessible account of the ancient ethical tradition from which contemporarymedicine and bioethics has departed. Their investigation, drawing on the scholarship of Leon Kass, Alasdair MacIntyre, and John Finnis, leads them to explore the nature ofmedicine as a practice, health as the end ofmedicine, the doctor-patient relationship, the rule of double effect in medical practice, and a number of clinical ethical issues from the beginning of life to its end. In the final chapter, the authors take up debates about conscience inmedicine, arguing that rather than pretending to not know what is good for patients, physicians should contend conscientiously for the patient's health and, in so doing, contend conscientiously for goodmedicine. The Way ofMedicine is an intellectually serious yet accessible exploration of medical practice written for medical students, health care professionals, and students and scholars of bioethics and medical ethics.

- Philosophy ofMedicine: An Introduction.R. Paul Thompson &Ross Upshur -2016 - New York: Routledge. Edited by Ross Upshur.What kind of knowledge is medical knowledge? Canmedicine be explained scientifically? Is disease a scientific concept, or do explanations of disease depend on values? What is ‘evidence-based’medicine? Are advances in neuroscience bringing us closer to a scientific understanding of the mind? The nature ofmedicine raises fundamental questions about explanation, causation, knowledge and ontology – questions that are central to philosophy as well asmedicine. In this book Paul R. Thompson and Ross E. G. (...) Upshur introduce the fundamental issues in philosophy ofmedicine for those coming to the subject for the first time. They introduce and explain the following key topics: Understanding the physician-patient relationship: the phenomenology of the medical encounter. Models and theories in biology andmedicine: what role do theories play inmedicine? Are they similar to scientific theories? Randomised controlled trials: can scientific experiments be replicated in clinicalmedicine? What are the philosophical criticisms levelled at RCTs? The concept of evidence in medical research: what do we mean by ‘Evidence-basedmedicine?’ Should allmedicine be based on evidence? Causation inmedicine What do advances in neuroscience reveal about the relationship between mind and body? Defining health and disease: are explanations of disease objective or do they depend on values? Evolutionarymedicine: what is the role of evolutionary biology in understandingmedicine? Is it relevant? Extensive use of empirical examples and case studies is made throughout the book. These include debates about smoking and cancer, the use of placebos in randomised controlled trials and controversies about research into the causes of HIV and autism. This is an indispendable introduction to those teaching philosophy ofmedicine and philosophy of science. (shrink)

- The Physical and the Moral: Anthropology, Physiology, and PhilosophicalMedicine in France, 1750-1850.Elizabeth A. Williams -1994 - Cambridge University Press.This book explores the tradition of the 'science of man' in Frenchmedicine of the era 1750-1850, focusing on controversies about the nature of the 'physical-moral' relation and their effects on the role ofmedicine in French society. Its chief purpose is to recover the history of a holistic tradition in Frenchmedicine that has been neglected because it lay outside the mainstream themes of modernmedicine, which include experimental, reductionist, and localistic conceptions of health and (...) disease. Professor Williams also challenges existing historiography, which argues that the 'anthropological' approach tomedicine was a short-term by-product of the leftist politics of the French Revolution. This work argues instead that the medical science of man long outlived the Revolution, that it spanned traditional ideological divisions, and that it reflected the shared aim of French physicians, whatever their politics, to claim broad cultural authority in French society.

- (1 other version)What's so special aboutmedicine?Daniel P. Sulmasy -1993 -Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 14 (1):379-380.Health care has increasingly come to be understood as a commodity. The ethical implications of such an understanding are significant. The author argues that health care is not a commodity because health care (1) is non-proprietary, (2) serves the needs of persons who, as patients, are uniquely vulnerable, (3) essentially involves a special human relationship which ought not be bought or sold, (4) helps to define what is meant by necessity and cannot be considered a commodity when subjected to rigorous (...) conceptual analysis. The Oslerian conception thatmedicine is a calling and not a business ought to be reaffirmed by both the profession and the public. Such a conception would have significant ramifications for patient care and health care policy. (shrink)

- Measuring ‘virtue’ inmedicine.Ben Kotzee &Agnieszka Ignatowicz -2016 -Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy 19 (2):149-161.Virtue-approaches to medical ethics are becoming ever more influential. Virtue theorists advocate redefining right or good action inmedicine in terms of the character of the doctor performing the action. In medical education, too, calls are growing to reconceive medical education as a form of character formation. Empirical studies of doctors’ ethics from a virtue-perspective, however, are few and far between. In this respect, theoretical and empirical study of medical ethics are out of alignment. In this paper, we survey (...) the empirical study of medical ethics and find that most studies of doctors’ ethics are rules- or principles-based and not virtue-based. We outline the challenges that exist for studying medical ethics empirically from a virtue-based perspective and canvas the runners and riders in the effort to find virtue-based assessments of medical ethics.

- Special issue—before translationalmedicine: laboratory clinic relations lost in translation? Cortisone and the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in Britain, 1950–1960.Michael Worboys &Elizabeth Toon -2019 -History and Philosophy of the Life Sciences 41 (4):1-22.Cortisone, initially known as ‘compound E’ was the medical sensation of the late 1940s and early 1950s. As early as April 1949, only a week after Philip Hench and colleagues first described the potential of ‘compound E’ at a Mayo Clinic seminar, the New York Times reported the drug’s promise as a ‘modern miracle’ in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Given its high profile, it is unsurprising that historians ofmedicine have been attracted to study the innovation of cortisone. (...) It arrived at the end of a decade of ‘therapeutic revolutions’, kicked off by penicillin transforming the treatment of bacterial infections and ending with hopes of a revolution in the treatment of non-infectious, chronic inflammatory diseases. Despite these studies of cortisone’s introduction, few historians have taken the story forward and considered how cortisone was adopted and adapted into clinical practice. This article tells the longer of how the drug and its derivatives were taken from research laboratories and integrated into clinical practice; what has in recent decades become known as translationalmedicine. In exploring cortisone’s first decade in Britain, we focus specifically on its role in the treatment of RA. Our approach is always to consider cortisone’s use in the context of other treatments available to clinicians, and at local and national institutional settings. We do not discuss the many other therapeutic uses of cortisone, which ranged for topical applications for skin diseases to the management of cancers, especially childhood leukaemia, nor do we discuss its close analogue ACTH—AdenoCorticoTropic Hormone. We think there are lessons in our study for TM policies today. (shrink)

- `Watching'medicine: Do bioethicists respect patients' privacy?Donald C. Ainslie -2000 -Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 21 (6):537-552.Agich has identified `watching' – the formal orinformal observation of the medical setting – as oneof the four main roles of the clinical bioethicist. By an analysis of a case study involving a bioethicsstudent who engaged in watching at an HIV/AIDS clinicas part of his training, I raise questions about theethical justification of watching. I argue that theinvasion of privacy that watching entails makes theactivity unacceptable unless the watcher has receivedprior consent from the patients who are beingobserved. I conclude that, (...) even though it isimportant for bioethics students to understand thecomplexities of actual medical practice, watchingshould play a prominent role in bioethics educationonly if the privacy problems in it can be resolved.

- The ethics of everydaymedicine: explorations of justice.Erwin B.

From the author's clinical experience, virtually every decision made in the day-to-day practice ofmedicine is fundamentally an ethical question, as virtually every decision hinge on some value judgment that goes beyond the medical facts of the matter. The first part of the book is devoted to medical decision cases in several areas of

- Anthropology and the theory ofmedicine.Thure Uexküll -1995 -Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 16 (1).Instead of presupposing reality as the realists do, a genetic theory of knowledge attempts to understand scientific knowledge through the psychological origins of both the concepts, and the operations on which these concepts are based. Adopting the viewpoint of genetic epistemology, the envisaged theory ofmedicine will have to perform a threefold task: (1) A revision and reformulation of the psycho-physical problem and the development of a model for the living body; (2) A revision of our views concerning the (...) relationship between humans and the inanimate and animate environment; and (3) The development of a concept for the construction of individual reality and its consequences for the patient-physician relationship.
