The Philosophical Diseases of Medicine and Their Cure: Philosophy and Ethics of Medicine, Vol. 1 pdf
Description
This book deals with the essential philosophical/ethical dimension that concerns the ends and goods entrusted to medicine. It shows that medicine cannot be reduced to its scientific and technical aspects and that the constitutive philosophical aspects of medicine presently are in a state of crisis. Medicine, besides being a scientifically based art of diagnosing and curing infirmities of many kinds, also possesses an essential philosophical and ethical dimension. It turns into anti-medicine if it no longer stands in the service of those goods and ends that are entrusted to it. Their nature is in no way known by natural science but can be clarified by philosophy. Consequently, medicine suffers from philosophical diseases of different degrees of gravity if its theory and practice are based on errors about its proper ends. The cure from the life-threatening philosophical diseases of medicine lies in a critique of philosophical mistakes that influence the theory and practice of medicine an Download The Philosophical Diseases of Medicine and Their Cure: Philosophy and Ethics of Medicine, Vol. 1 for free via rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared, dropBox, uploading, fileserve
