By Vincent de Stefano
ISBN 1
74114 846 4
Today the profession of medicine in the Western
world is undergoing a subtle shift in its approach to healing, and a
widespread reassessment is occurring of the ways in which medicine
has influenced health and sickness. In Holism and Complementary
Medicine Vincent looks at modern complementary medicine practice
in a historical context, and then moves to analysis from a medical
philosophical perspective. Differences between holistic and
conventional biomedical traditions and approaches are explored, and
key practice issues are examined including the role holistic
principles have to play in today’s health system and in the
therapeutic relationship. This is a thoroughly enjoyable,
informative and enlightening book. Highly recommended for students,
practitioners and anyone interested in the origins and core
principles of natural therapies.
