Chapters 1 and 2 of Complementary and Alternative Medicine: Ethics, the
Patient, and the Physician provide a context for thinking about CAM and
introduce its history and definitions. Chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6 examine
the ethical responsibilities of physicians, as well as communications
issues, patient education, legal concerns, and risk management.
Chapter 7 presents a framework for examining CAM using the scientific
method. As we enter the 21st century, and CAMuse becomes more
frequent, often as a companion to conventional medicine, this volume is
timely, thought-provoking and practical reading.
