Essentialism, Wittgenstein and Family Resemblances
Focusing on a bottom-up perspective, the book explores the philosophy of medicine through the lens of clinical practice and epidemiology, critiquing the search for overarching generalities that often alienates philosophical discourse from medical science. Drawing on Ludwig Wittgenstein's ideas, particularly the concept of family resemblances, it advocates for a philosophy deeply connected to real-world medical contexts, emphasizing practical engagement over abstract theorizing. The author encourages readers to observe rather than merely contemplate, aligning philosophy closely with healthcare.
Focusing on the philosophy of medicine, this volume presents an integrated approach within the broader context of the philosophy of science. It offers a comprehensive examination of the entire field of medicine, including psychiatry, while emphasizing a first-order perspective rooted in clinical practice. Rather than reviewing existing literature or framing debates, it provides an epistemological bottom-up account, aiming to develop its unique philosophical view of medicine based on relevant contributions from various authors.
