Reviews and Notes: The Meaning of Illness: A Phenomenological Account of the Different Perspectives of Physician and Patient

15 October 1993 | Volume 119 Issue 8 | Page 864

The Meaning of Illness: A Phenomenological Account of the Different Perspectives of Physician and Patient

Kay S. Toombs. 161 pages. Boston: Kluwer Academic Publishers; 1992. $64.00.

Philosophical essays on the phenomenology and ethics of how physicians and patients see and experience themselves and each other. Heavily annotated and documented. Despite its generally academic tone, this could be a satisfying text for the physician who wishes to look beneath the surface of his or her working world.
