I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking to understand how biology and culture interact to shape human health and the behavior of health professionals."-Sherman A. James, Susan B. King Professor of Public Policy Studies, Duke University "The Social Medicine Reader fulfills its purposes admirably. The selected readings will stimulate critical analysis of the experiences of modern medicine from both professional and patient perspectives." -- Samuel W. Bloom * JAMA *
