內容:
本書特別之處在於作者本身是一個小兒科醫生、遺傳學家、癌症患者的家屬,最後她也成為為癌症末期的患者。她把自己的經驗寫在這本書中,提醒大家要注意家族病史。者伊麗莎白.布萊恩(Elizabeth Bryan)一家人都得了癌症。小妹邦妮中年即死於卵巢癌,沒多久大妹菲莉絲蒂也發現自己得了乳癌,她的父親也未能逃過癌症的糾纏,家族中至少有5個人死於癌症。鑑於家人的癌症病史與遺傳基因BRCA1的突變有關,作者毅然決然切除了子宮、卵巢和乳房,沒有想到 2005年6月,她還是被發現得了胰臟癌,生命可能不保。她在治療期間,她思索遺傳基因對個人、家人以及家族下一代的意義,比較自己和身邊親友的病程發展。發現疾病與悲傷對每一個人的影響都不同,與親友的關係也會改變。無可奈何之下,她深刻地思索人生,把握活著的每一天,悟出與癌共存之道。在死亡的陰影下她以幽默的態度面對。她對死亡的感受是:「我甚至有一種異樣的興奮,就像即將踏上一趟最驚險的旅程,深入一個從未去過的地方。」以人道關懷為出發點寫這本書,她的文字優雅、誠摯,對癌症病人及家屬而言,可以說是很好的心靈嚮導。本書於2007年8月2日完成出版,隔年的2008年2月作者即去逝。

書名:Patient,heal thyself-how the new medicine puts the
     patient in charge

作者:Robert M. Veatch

內容:
Robert Veatch is one of the founding fathers of contemporary bioethics. In Patient, Heal Thyself, he sheds light on a fundamental change sweeping through the American health care system, a change that puts the patient in charge of treatment to an unprecedented extent. The change is in how we think about medical decision-making. Whereas medicine's core idea was that medical decisions should be based on the hard facts of science--the province of the doctor--the "new medicine" contends that medical decisions impose value judgments. Since physicians are not trained to make value judgments, the pendulum has swung greatly toward the patient in making decisions about their treatment. Veatch shows how this is presently true only for value-loaded interventions (abortion, euthanasia, genetics) but is coming to be true for almost every routine procedure in medicine--everything from setting broken arms to choosing drugs for cholesterol. Veatch uses a range of fascinating examples to reveal how values underlie almost all medical procedures and to argue that this change is inevitable and a positive trend for patients.
