Keywords Self-discovery
The social and ethical goals a society collectively sets itself for the good of its citizens should light our way forward, not the tools invented by a mercantile and technologically-driven world.

Cynthia Fleury gives voice to the great humanistic principles that are the foundation of her actions as a philosopher and psychoanalyst within the hospital system. The question of the availability of treatment—and of the conditions in which it is provided and administered—has become the focus of our social preoccupations, and it provides the basis for a critical and humanistic interrogation central to current medical practices and the political, scientific, economic, and cultural factors that determine them.
