Rezension

'This book provides a rigorous, yet accessible, introduction to philosophy of medicine that will be of great interest to both students and professionals, and to both philosophers and physicians.'

Robyn Bluhm, Michigan State University, USA

 

'Experienced clinicians will enjoy the clear and elegant exploration of medical decision making. Medical students will treasure the lucid explanation of the multiple approaches to weighing and communicating medical evidence, and students of philosophy will find this book fills a significant gap in the philosophy of science.'

Andrew D. Baines, University of Toronto, Canada
