Product details

Ivan Illich's detailed analysis of the local medical and health system is already considered a classic in critical medical literature. It clearly illustrates how an excessive technocracy, various interest groups from the medical profession and the pharmaceutical industry, along with a corresponding inhumane ideology, have turned patients into addicted consumers and medicine into a commodity. This book is strikingly relevant in light of the possibilities of modern medicine and the ongoing debate about the design of our health system.
