A Doctor's Line by Kenneth Calman

Through the centuries doctors have developed not only knowledge and experience, but also an understanding of feelings, emotions and ethical issues: the science and the art. Because of these parallel understandings they can learn the practices they need, and put them to use while ensuring the full involvement of the patient. Professor Sir Kenneth Calman looks at public health and the practice of medicine, examining perceptively and with lively illustrations from the great names of Scottish literature, from the 18th century to the present day, the developing role of doctors in society and their relationship with their patients.
Calman, Kenneth C.: - Kenneth Calman was born and brought up in Glasgow, and has had a career in clinical and public health medicine and academia. A collector of cartoons with a medical flavour, he has a passion for Scottish Literature, and loves gardening, golf, sundials, walking the dog, and making paper.
