The extensively updated and revised third edition of the bestselling Social Medicine Reader provides a survey of the challenging issues facing todays 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 poetry 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 healthcare providers. | The Social Medicine Reader Volume I Third Edition by Jonathan Oberlander, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
