Medicine - heretical issues

The book "Medicine - heretical issues"provides an alternative look at medicine. It discusses missing ingredients of health care like human rights, a nonviolent therapeutical approach, psychosocial development... For mainstream medicine, these are heretical issues. This is why mainstream medicine is only capable for technical development. Isolated technical development nourishes dogma and greed... It is neglects the inner being of both providers and recipients of health care... It is blind to the importance of community and of social connectedness... That is why the book which is in your hands is looking for different approaches to the human health and suffering. As the mainstream medicine does not accept approaches inconsistent with its dogma, this book is pleading for a medical pluralism. It is pleading for the introduction of a civilized level to medicine achieved in other social domains by political, cultural and religious pluralism.
