The philosophy of medicine in europe: Challenges for the future
Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 6 (1) (1985)
| Abstract | Two challenges face European philosophy of medicine. The first is to counterbalance what is seen as an overemphasis on social analysis of medicine with greater attention to its personal and individual dimensions. The second, related challenge, is to more fully understand the clinical realities of modern medicine, which in turn, give rise to the scope and limits of physician duties, patient obligations, and social concerns. | |||||||||
