UK General Medical Council, Good Medical Practice 2006 Explain what is meant by the above statement. Why might honesty, openness and integrity be important in a good doctor? Under what circumstances might a good doctor be justified in being less than perfectly honest or open in the course of their professional practice? 2 Science is a way of trying not to fool yourself. Richard Feynman, 1964 Explain why not fooling oneself is necessary for a scientist. Why might it be easy for scientists to make the mistake of fooling themselves? How might scientists guard against this mistake? 3 It is an obscenity that rich people can buy better medical treatment than poor people. Explain the argument behind the statement.
