pomo _medicine_?

[Kevin Troy]

Hey all--
Given the frequent discussion of postmodernism on pynchon-l, I thought
some of you may be interested in this:

	(From the American Enterprise Institute's bulletin):
	UPCOMING EVENT
	Mon, Jan. 8
	POSTMODERN MEDICINE
	Sally Satel of AEI and the Yale University School of Medicine will
	deliver the fifth of the Institute's 2000-2001 Bradley Lectures.

	[$5, held at some AEI building in Washington, DC]
	[I think they make lecture excerpts available at aei.org]

Does anyone know what "postmodern medicine" could possibly be?  Is that
when five doctors and nurses argue about the historical attitudes toward
the patient's illness, and toward the more general concept of "suffering"?

Eh.  Maybe it's just a discussion of _The Birth of the Clinic_.
