Reseña del libro "The Doctor's Dilemma (en Inglés)"
"The Doctor's Dilemma" is a satirical play written by George Bernard Shaw. This social comedy revolves around the ethical quandaries faced by a set of doctors once they need to determine which affected person is most deserving of limited clinical assets, particularly an existence-saving but experimental treatment. The imperative individual, Sir Colenso Ridgeon, a superb doctor, develops a groundbreaking remedy for tuberculosis, but is faced with the dilemma of getting the simplest amount of medication for one affected person. The scenario becomes more complicated when a charismatic artist, Louis Dubedat, enters the scene. Dubedat is diagnosed with tuberculosis, and his charm and persuasive skills gift a project to the medical doctors as they grapple with personal biases, professional ethics, and their own desires. Shaw uses the play to critique the clinical career, social hierarchies, and the moral complexities of choice-making. The narrative is laced with Shaw's signature wit and highbrow depth, reflecting the priorities and values inherent within the clinical field and society at large. "The Doctor's Dilemma" stands as a notion-scary exploration of the intersection between medicine, morality, and private ambition, showcasing Shaw's mastery of the use of humor and drama to dissect complicated social troubles.
