Book Introduction    la philosophie des sciences m  dicales

Download or read book Introduction la philosophie des sciences m dicales written by Maël Lemoine and published by Editions Hermann. This book was released on 2017 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En France, l'épistémologie de la médecine est facilement réduite à l'étude du magistral essai de Canguilhem, Le normal et le pathologique. Toutefois, ce livre publié il y a plus de soixante-dix ans ne reflète plus l'état des sciences médicales contemporaines, ni celui des débats poursuivis par les philosophes des sciences depuis. Le présent livre, premier du genre en langue française, a pour ambition d'introduire le lecteur à la philosophie des sciences médicales. Ses dix chapitres initieront le lecteur aux débats qui l'agitent, sans que soient requises des connaissances philosophiques ou médicales préalables. Il répond à la fois à la demande de médecins en quête d'une philosophie qui leur parle de leur discipline et de leurs pratiques, et de philosophes à la recherche d'un guide dans ce champ morcelé et dominé par la philosophie d'expression anglaise. [Payot]

Book excerpt: This textbook introduces the reader to basic problems in thephilosophy of science and ethics, primarily using examples frommedicine. It is based on the conviction that philosophy, medicalscience, medical informatics, and medical ethics are overlappingdisciplines. It claims that the philosophical lessons of the twentiethcentury are not that nature is a social construction and thatanything goes with respect to methodological and moral rules.Instead, there is scientific knowledge, but it is never completelysecure; there are norms, but they are situation-bound; and therefore,it makes good sense to search for scientific truths and try toact in a morally decent way. Using philosophical catchwords, theauthors advocate fallibilism and particularism; a combinationthat might be called pragmatic realism.

Book Philosophie de la m  decine

Download or read book Philosophie de la m decine written by and published by Academia. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comment définir la philosophie de la médecine? À quoi sert un tel enseignement? Quel contenu et quels objectifs peut-on lui donner? Cet essai pédagogique est une tentative de réponse à toutes ces questions. Les étudiants en médecine dans leur aspiration à être des médecins accomplis posent et se posent des questions qui invitent à réfléchir profondément sur les problèmes que soulève la construction des connaissances médicales et leur mise en pratique. Apprendre aux futurs médecins l'art de guérir, c'est aussi les préparer à être des "praticiens réflexifs", des "cliniciens créatifs", c'est-à-dire des professionnels capables de réflexivité dans leur pratique.

  • Author : David Misselbrook

  • ISBN : 1040016626
  • Pages : 402 pages

Download or read book Thinking About Medicine written by David Misselbrook and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-05-07 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This introduction to the philosophy of medicine surveys the landscape of western philosophy as it pertains to healthcare in an accessible way. Written by a doctor for doctors and other health professionals, framing the 'toolbox' of philosophy within the community of medicine, it encourages examination of the implicit assumptions made in the construction of medical knowledge and practice. Taking the reader step by step through the concepts that underpin modern philosophy, they will be challenged to reflect upon the premises within clinical practice which might benefit from scrutiny and challenge, including the nature of scientific knowledge, the limits of our biomedical model, the cultural and relational context, and the failure to recognise or manage adequately the fact/value distinction in medicine and healthcare. The book is an ideal textbook for students of medicine and medical philosophy and will also be of interest to bioethicists, medical sociologists, clinical commissioners and to practicing clinicians in medicine and the allied health professions seeking to improve their understanding of philosophy and ethics and sharpen their critical thinking skills.

Book Philosophy of Medicine

Download or read book Philosophy of Medicine written by Fred Gifford and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume covers a wide range of conceptual, epistemological and methodological issues in the philosophy of science raised by reflection upon medical science and practice. Several chapters examine such general meta-scientific concepts as discovery, reduction, theories and models, causal inference and scientific realism as they apply to medicine or medical science in particular. Some discuss important concepts specific to medicine (diagnosis, health, disease, brain death). A topic such as evidence, for instance, is examined at a variety of levels, from social mechanisms for guiding evidence-based reasoning such as evidence-based medicine, consensus conferences, and clinical trials, to the more abstract analysis of experimentation, inference and uncertainty. Some chapters reflect on particular domains of medicine, including psychiatry, public health, and nursing. The contributions span a broad range of detailed cases from the science and practice of medicine, as well as a broad range of intellectual approaches, from conceptual analysis to detailed examinations of particular scientific papers or historical episodes. Chapters view philosophy of medicine from quite different angles Considers substantive cases from both medical science and practice Chapters from a distinguished array of contributors

Book An Introductory Philosophy of Medicine

Download or read book An Introductory Philosophy of Medicine written by James A. Marcum and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-05-07 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the author explores the shifting philosophical boundaries of modern medical knowledge and practice occasioned by the crisis of quality-of-care, especially in terms of the various humanistic adjustments to the biomedical model. To that end he examines the metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical boundaries of these medical models. He begins with their metaphysics, analyzing the metaphysical positions and presuppositions and ontological commitments upon which medical knowledge and practice is founded. Next, he considers the epistemological issues that face these medical models, particularly those driven by methodological procedures undertaken by epistemic agents to constitute medical knowledge and practice. Finally, he examines the axiological boundaries and the ethical implications of each model, especially in terms of the physician-patient relationship. In a concluding Epilogue, he discusses how the philosophical analysis of the humanization of modern medicine helps to address the crisis-of-care, as well as the question of “What is medicine?” The book’s unique features include a comprehensive coverage of the various topics in the philosophy of medicine that have emerged over the past several decades and a philosophical context for embedding bioethical discussions. The book’s target audiences include both undergraduate and graduate students, as well as healthcare professionals and professional philosophers. “This book is the 99th issue of the Series Philosophy and Medicine...and it can be considered a crown of thirty years of intensive and dynamic discussion in the field. We are completely convinced that after its publication, it can be finally said that undoubtedly the philosophy of medicine exists as a special field of inquiry.”

Book The Fragility of Philosophy of Medicine

Download or read book The Fragility of Philosophy of Medicine written by Lucien Karhausen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-22 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book about philosophy of medicine bestows a bottom-up and not a top-down approach. It starts from clinical medicine and epidemiology, analyzing their interrelations with philosophical instruments. The book criticizes the constant search for generalities and the essentialism that too often characterizes this discipline, which results in philosophers of medicine dialoguing with each other without direct contact with medical science. In the light of Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy, this book proposes an approach to the philosophy of medicine based on the quorum of language, what Wittgenstein calls family resemblances. In this way the author establishes a philosophy of medicine that is closely related to the medical clinic and to public health and as such avoids armchair philosophy. “Don’t think, but look", wrote Wittgenstein.

Book Philosophie des sciences biologiques et m  dicales

Download or read book Philosophie des sciences biologiques et m dicales written by Anne Fagot-Largeault and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Il faut transporter la philosophie dans la médecine et la médecine dans la philosophie », lit-on dans un traité de la collection hippocratique. Transporter la philosophie dans la médecine signifie faire sortir la médecine de l’empirisme, la rendre rationnelle et scientifique. Transporter la médecine dans la philosophie : la médecine naît d’une demande de soin. Il n’y a pas un gouffre entre ce qui est (le réel) et ce qui doit être (l’idéal) : ce qui est, le nouveau-né qui crie, appelle ce qui doit être. Répondre à la demande de soins par une médecine rationnelle, responsable, c’est adopter une position philosophique. Être médecin n’est pas neutre philosophiquement. La philosophie implicite de l’acte médical peut se résumer en trois affirmations : (1) il y a du mal (toute une métaphysique) ; (2) il faut y porter remède (toute une morale) ; (3) les efforts pour y porter remède sont dérisoires (ironie socratique), mais cela n’empêche pas de les continuer, pour l’honneur.
