Treating disease can be considered a combat between curative
therapies and pathological afflictions. As such, the action of
achieving a cure can be likened to successfully waging war on
sickness and bodily disorders. Surgical Philosophy applies the core
principles derived from Sun Tzu's timeless book Art of War to
combating disease through surgery. Its goal is to offer principles,
strategies and leadership guidelines for surgeons at all levels and
other healthcare practitioners who carry out interventional
procedures for the ultimate aim of defeating illness and enhancing
the care of patients. In providing a novel and exciting perspective
on this ancient text, the book will also be of interest to students
of leadership, Eastern philosophy and Chinese history. The book
follows eleven sections of the Art of War. Each section reflects
the messages in the Art of War, but with a modern surgical point of
view. In the book, the role of the surgeon is equivalent to that of
a leader or military commander, and the lessons offered in the Art
of War are expanded to identify surgical principles and practice.
