作品詳細

[About the product]
-Is medical care really just about curing diseases?-
Biological medicine, which constitutes modern medicine, spends a huge amount of energy trying to elucidate the subject of research, humans, and as it develops, it has become more fragmented and deepened. On the other hand, the act of medical treatment has historically and socially had a ``healing'' aspect, and it has supported ``human beings'' in various ways, including religion. However, modern medicine has become too large in terms of its knowledge system and social influence to consider such biological medicine and anthropological medicine.--An overview of 21st century medicine that looks at modern medicine in general from a biological and anthropological perspective, from the perspective of "human beings" to clinical, institutional, economic, and ethical issues.

[Comments from the Editor]
The question of what medical care should be when faced with incurable diseases with no hope of cure or illnesses for which there is no treatment is currently being debated in various situations. The keyword "human-like" is often heard here. This may be a sign that patients are trying to revert from being "human" to being "human" in the medical field. Please read this book, which will make you think not only about medicine, but also about humans and society.
