Philosophy of Medicine is the 16th volume in Elsevier's Philosophy of Science series. Editor Fred Gifford and series editors Dov M. Gabbay, Paul Thagard, and John Woods have done a magnificent job of recruiting outstanding scientifically informed philosophers and occasionally philosophically informed scientists, each interested in the philosophical aspects of a particular area of medicine, to write for this new contribution to the series. Of the 19 contributors to this volume, 12 are scientifically minded philosophers and 7 are philosophically minded scientists; some hold to the analytical school of philosophy. Three of the contributors have MD degrees; of these, 2 are practicing physicians.
