We already discussed here “how doctors think?k” while a new essay in the Lancet now even asks “Can doctors think“?

Disease can be recognised by the doctor and the patient (mumps), by the doctor but not the patient (schizophrenia), by some doctors but not others (social phobia), by doctors in some times but not others (melancholy …), and by doctors in some places but not others (embedded incisor tooth because an ancestor’s ghost is angry).

marvelous, yea, yea.
