Abstract
This special issue of “The Forum” publishes Charles L. Bosk's final work—a book proposal written for a trade audience titled—The Price of Perfection: The Cost of Error. Five noted scholars Carol Heimer, Carla Keirns, Mark Neuman, Julia Szymczak, and Stefan Timmermans offer commentary. Their essays touch on common themes: Bosk's humanity, his wry sense of humor, and keen ability to highlight the absurdity of the social organization of contemporary medicine alongside the sacred obligation that accompanies caring for the sick. Together, the book proposal and these five essays focus our attention on the impact Bosk's scholarship had in medicine, sociology, and the patient safety movement.
