From publisher blurb:
The art of medicine has been practiced by humans for thousands of years. Since prehistoric times, when the healing power of certain plants and other natural materials was first discovered, medicine has undertaken a slow but inexorable advance, each new discovery building or improving upon those before it. At the forefront of this advance were those who took up the art of healing, at first blending primitive lore with religious overtones; but with the coming of such luminaries as Hippocrates, Galen, Imhotep, Avicenna, and Sushruta, more rational applications of medicine began to take root. These were among the first of those known today as doctors, or Physicians.
Physicians in Cepheus Engine and the Original Science Fiction Roleplaying Game (OSFRPG) need no longer be consigned to the background, called forth only when one of their colleagues gets hurt. Career: Physicians puts them into the thick of the action with three new types: Warriors, Researchers, and Practitioners, making the team’s doctor more than just a bandager and pill-pusher. Also offered are a new skill and a mechanic for determining how successful a Physician is likely to be by putting them through med school.
Career: Physicians. There is a doctor in the house.
