Details
Humanities in Medical Education covers a wide range of topics from historical aspects of humanities to need and purpose of medical humanities, and ways and means of inculcating humanities in medical students including their assessment. Core competencies related to the field of medical humanities have been provided for better understanding and framing an institutional curriculum.
The authors have defined medical humanities as “an amalgamation of medical sciences with arts, viz. philosophy, sociology, psychology, history, literature, theatre and arts, empathy, culture, and more importantly with ethics, communication, and professionalism in medical context, with interdisciplinary interaction and application of clinical skills with soft skills for improving patient-care outcomes”. The book deals with medical humanities and should serve as a useful resource for teaching many of the AETCOM competencies.
