This work includes forewords by Sir Liam Donaldson and Peter Wheeler, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health; Dean, College of Fine Arts, University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. Appreciating art can help doctors build empathy with patients and reduce stress. By stimulating thought and reflection through paintings, this concise and engaging text invites readers to examine their motivation, their profession and their world. This exciting new book provides vital refreshment for doctors and medical students, lecturers and tutors in medical humanities, and healthcare professionals with mentoring roles. "John and Erica Middleton guide the reader gently along the interface between art and medicine, in their own inimitable style. Whether in search of an introduction to the world of art, or wishing to consider the role that the formal study of art might play in professional development, reading this book is likely to prove rewarding. Turning these pages will help doctors to appreciate afresh the window through which they look upon the world" - Sir Liam Donaldson, in his Foreword. "Great art provides insights into the human condition. If through a systematic engagement with art and literature as an extension of their medical practice, GPs can apply those insights to themselves (know thyself), they can equally apply them when dealing with patients. Doctors and patients are people, subjects. Intersubjectivity is perhaps a better word than empathy to define what this book seeks to promote, the capacity of the doctor to enter into and inhabit the patient's subjectivity" - Peter Wheeler, in his Foreword.

Prepared in conjunction with an exhibition at the Duke University Museum of Art (November 1999 -- January 2000), this book showcases 59 pieces from four medical school collections. The (mostly) full-page reproductions feature objects such as surgical tools and ivory manikins, as well as a wide variety of anatomical illustrations; they range from Europe to the Far East and Africa, and from the 15th to the 20th century. The explanatory text is carefully written and, like the audience it will interest, reaches across the disciplines of art, history, and science. Hansen is an art historian researching art and science in 17th-century Amsterdam; Porter is curator of the Duke University Medical Center Library's History of Medicine Collections; and Martin Kemp (who wrote the foreword), is an art historian (Oxford U.) who has written extensively on the relationships between representation in art and science. The book is distributed by Duke U. Press. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Download Patients As Art Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Patients as Art explores the capacity of art to provide a unique perspective on the history of humankind. Fearturing over 160 full-color works of art, this book offers a pictorial review of medical history stretching from Paleolithic times to the present, reflecting the ideals and sensibilities of the times in which they were created, and communicating formal, spiritual, and scientific values. Rarely have experts considered the potential clinical implications of such works or their collective value as an archive of medical history. Many prominent works of art have depicted aspects of medicine's long struggle against ignorance, superstition, and religious and political dogma to emerge as one of mankind's greatest achievements. The particular works included in this book were chosen both for their esthetic appeal and for the skill with which they depict important developments in medicine over time. Dr. Mackowiak reveals what these works have to say about the status of the "art of medicine" in the past, and its relationship to the medicine of today.
