Can Medicine Be Cured?: The Corruption of a Profession by Seamus O’Mahony
Requirements: .MP3 reader, 104 MB
Overview: A fierce, honest, elegant and often hilarious debunking of the great fallacies that drive modern medicine.
Seamus O’Mahony writes about the illusion of progress, the notion that more and more diseases can be ‘conquered’ ad infinitum. He punctures the idiocy of consumerism, the idea that healthcare can be endlessly adapted to the wishes of individuals. He excoriates the claims of Big Science, the spending of vast sums on research follies like the Human Genome Project. And he highlights one of the most dangerous errors of industrialized medicine: an over-reliance on metrics and a neglect of things that can’t easily be measured, like compassion.
