Summary

Bible Hygiene Ahead investigates the surprisingly sophisticated public health practices embedded within the Book of Leviticus. Exploring ancient sanitation laws, the book reveals how these regulations, predating germ theory, effectively combatted disease transmission and fostered community health. For example, specific rules addressed bodily discharges, corpse handling, and quarantine, showcasing a practical approach to hygiene rooted in religious law. This unique analysis challenges assumptions that effective public health is solely a product of modern science.

 
The study examines the sanitation laws, their socio-cultural context, and their impact on public health, highlighting the practical wisdom within these ancient texts. By analyzing Leviticus, the book progresses through key concepts of ritual purity, specific hygiene laws, and their effectiveness in preventing disease.

 
Ultimately, the book demonstrates the tangible benefits of these laws, regardless of their original rationale, and considers the ethics of applying historical texts to public health today.

    Chronic pain is a medical mystery, debilitating to patients and a source of frustration for practitioners. It often eludes both cause and cure and serves as a reminder of how much further we have to go in unlocking the secrets of the body. A new field of pain medicine has evolved from this landscape, one that intersects with dozens of disciplines and subspecialties ranging from psychology and physiology to anesthesia and chiropractic medicine. Over the past three decades, researchers, policy makers, and practitioners have struggled to define this complex and often contentious field as they work to establish standards while navigating some of the most challenging philosophical issues of Western science. In The Politics of Pain Medicine: A Rhetorical-Ontological Inquiry, S. Scott Graham offers a rich and detailed exploration of the medical rhetoric surrounding pain medicine. Graham chronicles the work of interdisciplinary pain management specialists to found a new science of pain and a new approach to pain medicine grounded in a more comprehensive biospychosocial model. His insightful analysis demonstrates how these materials ultimately shape the healthcare community’s understanding of what pain medicine is, how the medicine should be practiced and regulated, and how practitioner-patient relationships are best managed. It is a fascinating, novel examination of one of the most vexing issues in contemporary medicine.
