Medicinsk kunskap är alltid i rörelse. Den kan färdas från laboratoriet till kontoret, med en pressrelease till en patient, via en vetenskaplig artikel till en tjänsteman och kanske vidare till en beslutsfattare. Förflyttningen till olika sammanhang har betydelse för hur kunskapen uppfattas och används, vilket i sin tur kan påverka inriktningen på både forskning och politiska beslut. Komplexiteten hos medicinsk kunskap och de konsekvenser som den får står i fokus i antologin Movement of knowledge. Författarna undersöker hur kunskap präglar de medicinska och folkhälsoorienterade rummen och granskar samtidigt de metodologiska och teoretiska verktygen vi har för att studera kunskap och kunskapsflöden. I sina texter anlägger forskarna en tvärvetenskaplig syn på medicinsk humaniora och visar med såväl samtida som historiska perspektiv på hur gränssnittet mellan experter och allmänhet kan studeras. Medicinsk kunskap dekonstrueras, rekonstrueras och omformas när den rör sig mellan patienter, vårdgivare och samhället i stort. Att en behandlingsmetod godkänns eller underkänns utifrån medicinska fakta är något som i slutänden påverkar oss alla.

Medical Education: Theory and Practice is a new text linking the theory and the practice for graduate students and educators who want to go beyond the basics.
