On May 13-15, 1982, some 50 scientists and scholars - physicians,
philos ophers and social scientists - convened at Hasselby Castle
in Stockholm for the first Nordic Symposium on the Philosophy of
Medicine. The topics for the symposium included (1) the concepts of
health and disease, (2) classification in medicine, and (3)
causality and causal explanations in medicine. The majority of the
participants were Scandinavian but the symposium was also able to
welcome four distinguished guests from other parts of the world,
Professors Stuart F. Spicker and H. Tristram Engelhardt, Jr.,
U.S.A., Dr Anne M. Fagot, France, and Dr Werner Morbach, West
Germany. The latter represented Professor Kazem Sadegh-zadeh, who
unfortunately was prevented from attending. One of the main
purposes of this symposium was to bring together people in
Scandinavia who at present work within the field of Philosophy of
Medi cine. This group is still relatively small but is growing
rapidly, and the scholarly activity has recently been notable. This
fact is clearly demonstrated by the presentation of 'Philosophy of
Medicine in Scandinavia' in the Appendix of this volume."
