The editors and their collaborators show the medical leviathan, warts and all, for what it is: changing, pluralistic, problematic, powerful, provocative. What medicine proclaims itself to be - unified, scientific, biological and not social, non-judgmental - it is shown not to resemble very much. Those matters about which medicine keeps fairly silent, it turns out, come closer to being central to its clinical practice - managing errors and learning to conduct a shared moral dis- course about mistakes, handling issues of competence and competition among biomedical practitioners, practicing in value-laden contexts on problems for which social science is a more relevant knowledge base than biological science, integrating folk and scientific models of illness in clinical communication, among a large number of highly pertinent ethnographic insights that illuminate medicine in the chapters that follow. | | 出版日期 | Book 1985 | | 關鍵詞 | Evaluation; Transformation; clinic; ethnography; internal medicine; pediatrics; psychiatry | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-6430-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-90-277-1881-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-6430-3 | | copyright | D.
