What now, Asclepius? Lessons from Olympus.
Asclepius, the Greek and Roman god of healing, is called before a council of gods on Mount Olympus to account for the shortcomings of his mortal descendants, the present day physicians. Accusations by the gods and Asclepius' defense and explanation bring the gods an understanding of human history and what physicians must become if humanity is to triumph over disease. Asclepius hopes the modern medical profession will understand also.
