Title: Doctors & rules
First published: 1988
Description: "Doctors and Rules is a unique and immensely scholarly book. It draws on material that has informed our civilization, including many of the social sciences - history, sociology, and psychology, as well as law. Joseph Jacob seeks to expose the often unarticulated foundations of contemporary debates about the law, medicine, and health, and to question some common assumptions of the functions and structures of social and legal order."--Jacket.
