The Philosophical Foundations of Classical Chinese Medicine

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM) by making its philosophical foundations accessible to skeptics and newcomers. Keekok Lee employs two strategies: first, he emphasizes that understanding any science, including medicine, requires examining its underlying philosophical assumptions. Second, he contrasts the philosophical presuppositions of CCM with those of biomedicine, offering insights that challenge dismissive attitudes and promote a deeper understanding of CCM's value and relevance.
