1OI)AV, in most countries in the world, there are women practising medicine; I think I am correct in saying that they specialise in every branch; opportunities vary in different countries and even in different parts of the same country. In Australia there is a Flying Doctor Service, carried on by two women who are in general practice; they cover thousandls of miles and deal with all types of em...

The study of mass communications is a broad, multidisciplinary field to which sociology has made major contributions.

In this introduction we first defi...

Social scientists have drawn attention to the role of hype and optimistic visions of the future in providing momentum to biomedical innovation projects by encouraging innovation alliances. In this article, we show how less optimistic, uncertain, and modest visions of the future can also provide innovation projects with momentum. Scholars have highlighted the need for clinicians to carefully man...

Most serious efforts aimed at linking social and behavioral sciences knowledge to medical practice have included "models" which integrate social and behavioral science concepts. We argue that such an integration is intellectually problematic due to an important analytic distinction between "social" sciences and "psychological" sciences. If the social explanation of illness is to become useful i...
