Examining Complementary Medicine
By:"Andrew Vickers"
Published on 1998 by Nelson Thornes
Examining Complementary Medicine is one of the first books to take a critical look at complementary medicine from the inside, with contributions from leading figures in this growing field of interest. Until recently, criticism and analysis of complementary therapy has come exclusively from orthdox medicine, but with the widespread adoption of complementary therapies within conventional medical therapeutic practices, the time is now right for critical self-analysis on the part of practitioners within complementary therapies. Andrew Vickers has assembled leading figures to discuss the major concepts of complementary medicine and to expose hitherto hidden flaws in the reasonong and knowledge thought to underpin complementary medicine. the controversial nature of some of the contributions is intended to provoke further critical analysis within the professions, and it is hoped that the book will contribute to an intellectually rigorous theoretical basis for complementary practice.
