  • The Growth of Medical Knowledge

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    The growth of knowledge and its effects on the practice of medicine have been issues of philosophical and ethical interest for several decades and will remain so for many years to come.

In 1987, a conference on this theme was held in Maastricht, the Netherlands, on the occasion of the founding of the European Society for ... Leer más

  • Philosophical Dimensions of the Neuro-Medical Sciences

    Proceedings of the Second Trans-Disciplinary Symposium on Philosophy and Medicine Held at Farmington, Connecticut, May 15–17, 1975

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Although the investigation and regulation of the faculties of the human mind appear to be the proper and sole concern of philosophers, you see that they are in some part nevertheless so little foreign to the medical forum that while someone may deny that they are proper to the physician he cannot deny that physicians have the obliga tion to philosophize.

    Proceedings of the Fifth Trans-Disciplinary Symposium on Philosophy and Medicine Held at Los Angeles, California, April 14–16, 1977

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Over a period of a year, the symposium on clinical judgment has taken shape as a volume devoted to the analysis of how knowledge claims are framed in medicine and how choices of treatment are made. We hope it will afford the reader, whether layman, physician or philosopher, a useful perspective on the process of knowing what occurs in medicine; and that the results of the dis cussions at the Fifth ...

    Value Conflicts for the 21st Century

    Edición de S.F. Spicker, S.R. Ingman, Ian Lawson ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    There is both a timeliness and a transcendent 'rightness' in the fact that scholars, clinicians, and health professionals are beginning to examine the ethics-based components of decision making in health care of the elderly.

  • Evaluation and Explanation in the Biomedical Sciences

    Proceedings of the First Trans-Disciplinary Symposium on Philosophy and Medicine Held at Galveston, May 9–11, 1974

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
