How should we perceive the human body? Is it best understood biologically, experientially, culturally? How do social institutions exercise power over the body and determine norms of health and behavior? The answers arrived at by phenomenologists, social theorists, and feminists have radically challenged our cenventional notions of the body dating back to 17th century Cartesian thought. This is the first volume to systematically explore the range of contemporary thought concerning the body and draw out its crucial implications for medicine. Its authors suggest that many of the problems often found in modern medicine -- dehumanized treatment, overspecialization, neglect of the mind's healing resources -- are directly traceable to medicine's outmoded concepts of the body. New and exciting alternatives are proposed by some of the foremost physicians and philosophers working in the medical humanities today. 410 0$aPhilosophy and Medicine,$x2215-0080 ;$v43 606 $aMedicine$xPhilosophy 606 $aPhenomenology 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 606 $aMedicine$xHistory 606 $aBioethics 606 $aPhilosophy of Medicine 606 $aPhenomenology 606 $aEarly Modern Philosophy 606 $aHistory of Medicine 606 $aBioethics 615 0$aMedicine$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPhenomenology. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern. 615 0$aMedicine$xHistory. 615 0$aBioethics. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Medicine. 615 24$aPhenomenology. 615 24$aEarly Modern Philosophy. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 615 24$aBioethics. 676 $a610.1 702 $aLeder$b D$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816701603321 996 $aThe Body in Medical Thought and Practice$93969689 997 $aUNINA
