Ninety-Nine Lessons in Critical Thinking

Beschreibung

Ninety-Nine Lessons in Critical Thinking was designed to enhance the reader's awareness of how they think and how decisions involving patients and scientific matters can be influenced by word choice, preconceived ideas, framing, biases, and inattentiveness. Entertaining and informative stories from the author's 45 year clinical and scientific experience and from the history of medicine and science are presented to illustrate ways in which critical thinking skills can be developed. Practical suggestions to improve doctor-patient interactions are included, with an emphasis on approaching care regarding the patient's life context and personhood.
