Medicine and Literature
|
|
|
The aim of this course is to engage students in the process of self-reflection about their roles as health care professionals through the lens of literature. Reading about the ways in which people interact with professionals, patients, and disease can enrich our understanding of cultural, economic, and social issues. Medical literature is a diverse field and it increases our awareness of the different reactions to medicine and illness. This course is intended to improve our empathy for patients and peers.
