John Raymaker 
Bernard Lonergan’s Method and a Medical Doctor’s Approach to Healthcare 

Pat Daly, MD, has written a series of articles which uphold Bernard Lonergan’s method explored in his famous book Insight as a model that could be followed or applied in practicing medicine or promoting healthcare. Daly calls his effort a GEM Model for medicine. Daly, however, has not explored in-depth Lonergan’s second major work, Method in Theology, which develops an eight-step method that complements Insight. This book focuses on these eight steps, or Functional Specialties so as to better promote Lonergan’s views on ‘Healing and Creating in History.’
