The Routledge Companion to Philosophy of Medicine is a
comprehensive guide to topics in the fields of epistemology and
metaphysics of medicine. It examines traditional topics such as the
concept of disease, causality in medicine, the epistemology of the
randomized controlled trial, the biopsychosocial model,
explanation, clinical judgment and phenomenology of medicine and
emerging topics, such as philosophy of epidemiology, measuring
harms, the concept of disability, nursing perspectives, race and
gender, the metaphysics of Chinese medicine, and narrative
medicine. Each of the 48 chapters is written especially for this
volume and with a student audience in mind. For pedagogy and
clarity, each chapter contains an extended example illustrating the
ideas discussed. This text is intended for use as a reference for
students in courses in philosophy of medicine and philosophy of
science, and pairs well with The Routledge Companion to Bioethics
for use in medical humanities and social science courses.
