Based on the title one might ask if this blog has anything to do with the life of a physician. One of the reasons I chose to be a physician was because I knew the profession could grow with me. The profession allows me to observe and participate in the most difficult events of a person's life. If that experience doesn't raise questions in a doctor's mind...well, I just don't know what they're preoccupied with.
I am new to blogging.
I am using blogging primarily to log concepts over time.
I am open to others commenting and adding to my understanding of concepts. I realize I am an amateur and that there people out there that know a lot more about I'm discussing than I do. But I don't really want to be so concerned about being wrong on a concept that I don't express or try to work it out. So, be a little sympathetic and always civil. This blog is intended to educate me and develop coherence in my cosmology. If it helps you, all the better!
The concepts I am working on are kind of academic and theoretical. But there must be a potential to move concept into daily life (either work or family).
At this time, concepts considered are:
- existential
- direct observation
- logic and math (right now, set theory and decision-making- see below)
- basic sciences
- medical knowledge
- meaning and purposes
- theology
- philosophy
- human studies
- choice and change
- psychology
- sociology
- information theory and informatics - (using set theory to define the limits of information needed to arrive at a decision.)
