How Doctors Think: Clinical Judgment and the Practice of Medicine
Mongtomery, Kathryn (, Professor of Medical Humanities and Bioethics, Northwestern University)
How Doctors Think defines the nature and importance of clinical judgment. Although physicians make use of science, this book argues that medicine is not itself a science but rather an interpretive practice that relies on clinical reasoning. A physician looks at the patient's history along with the presenting physical signs and symptoms and juxtaposes these with clinical experience and empirical studies to construct a tentative account of theillness.
