From the reviews: "Mary Ann Cutter's 'Reframing Disease Contextually' draws together a number of themes in philosophy of medicine in order to make the case that disease should be understood contextually and locally. ... Overall, this book makes an important case for viewing disease as 'contextual' ... the examples of contextualism analyzed by Cutter are a useful and powerful way of making this point. ... All in All, this book is well worth reading." (Robyn Bluhm, Metapsychology Online Reviews, July, 2006)
