- W155256056 abstract "Recently an evangelical theologian ventured into the eld of medical ethics with the tone of an old-fashioned evangelist on the sawdust trail to urge a return to Hippocratic medicine and a rejection of a “new medicine” practiced today whose focus is the relief of suˆering. Nigel Cameron understands Hippocrates (the “father of modern medicine”) and his followers as a reformminded enterprise in ancient Greek medicine that championed the physician as healer with a sense of the sanctity of life within a society where the relief of suˆering was the normative medicine model and included physicianassisted suicide. An opposing viewpoint bemoans the modern medical preoccupation with prolonging life and terms this pursuit a “new medicine.” This concern to prolong life is thought to be rooted in Baconian science, which sought to exercise dominion over nature. On the other hand, the method of Hippocratic physicians is found to be less aggressive. The Hippocratic corpus, it is said, oˆers the purpose of medicine as “to do away with the suˆerings of the sick, to lessen the violence of their diseases . . . (and) to refuse to treat those who are overmastered by their diseases (The Art 3).” This viewpoint claims that the Hippocratic Oath, with its prohibitions of practicing surgery and performing abortions, was an esoteric document that did not begin to gain acceptance until the Christian era (the rst known reference to it comes from the rst century AD) and as the Church termed abortion, euthanasia and suicide sin. This academic debate about the historical Hippocrates and the meaning of “new medicine” re ects the modern problem of how to respond to human suˆering. Eric Cassell has de ned suˆering as “the distress brought about by the actual or perceived threat to the integrity or continued existence of the whole" @default.
