| 520 | |a Throughout history, men have repeatedly made judgments regarding their own conduct and that of their fellow men. Some acts have been judged to be right or good, while other acts have been denounced as wrong or evil. Ethical judgment in medicine, as in other areas of life, is an attempt to distinguish between good and bad conduct. This book is based on three lectures given by the author as the Medical Director of Eye Clinic Singapura International. The first lecture was an address delivered to medical undergraduates at the National University of Singapore in 1975. The second was a Commonwealth. | ||

| 505 | 8 | |a A good doctor must know that before he carries out any procedure, the age-old medical adage must prevail: "First of all, do no harm."A good doctor must maintain healthy relationships with his colleagues, his patients and the society in which he lives and serves.; Respecting their teachers and acknowledging and praising the excellence of their colleagues are issues doctors should address.; In ancient society, the doctor was regarded as a supernatural figure as he grappled with the serious and mysterious forces of disease and health. | |
| 505 | 8 | |a Some important current issues of medical ethics: It would be wise for doctors not to ignore the national problem of costs for good health care. It is clear that in our inflationary society with an aging population, costs will spiral.
