For 2,400 years, physicians have honored Hippocrates' sacred
vow to treat a patient with empirical, scientific wisdom and
ethical consideration. However, as James C. Christensen wittily
reveals in The Oath, not all aspects of medical antiquity have
stood the test of time and Hippocrates could never have imagined
some others. Just as attorneys everywhere warmly responded to
the self-deprecating humor of Christensen’s image A Lawyer
More Than Adequately Attired in Fine Print, we think members
of the medical profession will appreciate a healthy dose of The
Oath. Accompanied by a decorative Hippocratic Oath suitable for
framing and a key of over 60 medical references. |
