The first historical study of morality and science in Canadian medicine, Medicine and Morality shows how moments of doubt in doctors' impartiality resulted in changes to how medicine was done, and even to the very definition of medical practice itself.

This is a case report involving an elderlyJehovah's Witness woman with a history of chronic anaemia who suffers cardiac arrest and is resuscitated. This case illustrates, even in an emergency setting, (1) the value of obtaining relevant history, (2) addressing code status within the framework of achievable goals of care and (3) the need to revise both history and goals of care, as more information becomes available. We also propose aspects of this discussion that would benefit from future research.

The author, Dr. Paul Hebert, placed much of the blame on doctors themselves, saying they have developed a sense of entitlement to the lavish perks often paired with continuing medical education or CME programs _ things like tickets to the ballet or professional sporting events, cruises or access to exclusive golf courses. Hebert's editorial suggests that evidence shows education sponsored by drug and device makers ``frequently distorts the topic selection, embellishes the positive elements of studies and downplays the adverse effects'' _ focusing attention on drug treatments and away from disease prevention, health promotion and non-pharmaceutical options, such as talk therapy for depression.
