概要
 In 2002 a public health director in Newark asked a dramatist whether he knew the word nosocomial. He did not. Nor did any of the graduate students in the room he taught the following week.Nosocomial means hospital-acquired. It names the illness a patient walks in without and walks out carrying. Medicine has owned the word for more than a century and worn it smooth, until it can be said in a Tuesday meeting without a change in the voice.DO HARM is the book that afternoon opened. It begins in a Vienna maternity ward in 1847, where Ignaz Semmelweis proved from a register of the dead that he and his colleagues were the weapon, and where those colleagues broke him for naming them. It carries the proof into the present: the organisms our own antibiotics bred, the ventilator and the catheter that run infection down roads built to deliver care, and the copper that has killed bacteria since the age of the pharaohs and still goes uninstalled.Then the harder question. If a house raised for healing manufactures fresh sickness through ordinary operation, where else does that shape appear? David Boles follows it into the prison that schools its inmates in crime, the asylum that promised safety, the classroom that drains the appetite it exists to feed, the parish and the camp and the troop where trust itself becomes the instrument, the research that priced a child's blood against a cheap repair, and the faith that kept its promise of deliverance by way of the grave.One distinction holds the argument together. Some harm is welded to a function and cannot be removed without ending the thing people need. Much of the rest was chosen upstream and then dressed in the language of necessity so that nobody would have to answer for it. I©2026 David Boles (P)2026 David Boles 公衆衛生 医薬・ヘルスケア業界 教育・トレーニング 社会学
