They have also changed the doctor-patient relationship. This book explores how the technologies of medicine are created and how we respond to the problems and successes of their use. Stanley Joel Reiser, MD, walks us through the ways medical innovations exert their influence by discussing a number of selected technologies, including the X-ray, ultrasound, and respirator. Reiser creates a new understanding of thinking about how health care is practiced in the United States and thereby suggests new methods to effectively meet the challenges of living with technological medicine. As healthcare reform continues to be an intensely debated topic in America, Technological Medicine shows us the pros and cons of applying technological solutions health and illness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanley Joel Reiser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521835690\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521835695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.34w x 0.85d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2009 pg. 133\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChronicle of Higher Education\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/11\/2009 pg. 16\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2010","brand":"Stanley Joel Reiser","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43920074146047,"sku":"9780521835695","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e6db5e82-cc43-4dff-a4f8-e02f788f45fb.jpg?v=1680813455","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/technological-medicine-stanley-joel-reiser-9780521835695","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
