The extensively updated and revised third edition of the
bestselling Social Medicine Reader provides a survey of the
challenging issues facing today's health care providers, patients,
and caregivers by bringing together moving narratives of illness,
commentaries by physicians, debates about complex medical cases,
and conceptually and empirically based writings by scholars in
medicine, the social sciences, and the humanities. Volume 1, Ethics
and Cultures of Biomedicine, contains essays, case studies,
narratives, fiction, and poems that focus on the experiences of
illness and of clinician-patient relationships. Among other topics
the contributors examine the roles and training of professionals
alongside the broader cultures of biomedicine; health care;
experiences and decisions regarding death, dying, and struggling to
live; and particular manifestations of injustice in the broader
health system. The Reader is essential reading for all medical
students, physicians, and health care providers.
