From one of America's most outspoken social critics, a searing account of how the wholesale intrusion of political correctness into medicine is creating a toxic healthcare system.. Drawing on a wealth of information PC, M.D. documents for the first time what happens when the tenets of political correctness-including victimology, multiculturalism, rejection of fixed truths and individual autonomy-are allowed to enter the fortress of medicine.
