Description

Explore the evolving role of medical authority in 'The Physician as Captain of the Ship: A Critical Reappraisal.' This volume, part of the Philosophy and Medicine series, examines the legal and social metaphors that have defined the medical profession. Historically, the physician was viewed as the captain of the ship, holding absolute authority over the clinic, the operating room, and the entire healthcare team. This book analyzes how that responsibility and accountability functioned within American society and questions how these traditional roles might change in the future. It provides a deep look into the shift from fixed duties to the changing landscape of modern medical practice. For students, professionals, and researchers interested in the intersection of law, philosophy, and healthcare, this text offers a necessary perspective on the changing dynamics of medical supervision and professional authority.
