Overview""Apfel and Fisher raise important questions about the explosion of modern medical technology. They vividly delineate the factors contributing to experimentation with new techniques and drugs and how the pressures experienced by physicians, coupled with their fantasies of heroism, meld with pressures from their patients to tempt them to take risks prematurely…. The volume is provocative and effective. It should be read by all who take part in the health care system, patients and their caretakers."" –Carol Nadelson, M.D., Journal of the American Medical Association Full Product DetailsAuthor: Roberta Apfel , Susan FisherPublisher: Yale University Press Imprint: Yale University Press Edition: New edition Dimensions: Width: 14.00cm , Height: 0.10cm , Length: 21.00cm Weight: 0.272kg ISBN: 9780300036190ISBN 10: 0300036191 Pages: 204 Publication Date: 01 July 1986 Audience: College/higher education , Professional and scholarly , Undergraduate , Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Manufactured on demand ![]() We will order this item for you from a manufactured on demand supplier.
