The Rhetoric of Medicine explores problems that confront medical professionals today by first examining similar problems that confronted physicians in ancient Greece. This framework provides illuminating entry points into challenges faced by the practice of medicine, enabling readers to understand more clearly their shape and operation in the modern context-as well as possible solutions to these problems. This text represents a unique collaboration between a classicist and a neurosurgeon, and is a call to interrogate the narratives and ideas that shape medical care and to revise and replace those that do not serve patient health.
