Open to all students, this course focuses on the human body as an object of study in the history and practice of medicine. The class identifies a number of key issues which affect the attitudes that contemporary physicians often have about their patients based upon prevalent attitudes toward the human body in our society. Societal values which shape our ideas about gender, physical appearance, cosmetic surgery, obesity, and genetic abnormalities will be the focus of determining the extent to which these issues may actually affect the education of physicians and choices of medical treatment.
