Wholistic dimensions in healing

The book explores the evolving recognition of traditional and holistic healing practices around the world, highlighting their significance in improving health outcomes. It critiques Western biomedicine for its limited scope in addressing chronic and environmentally-induced illnesses and advocates for a new paradigm—integrative medicine—that combines insights from various healing traditions and disciplines. By incorporating subjective and objective data, the paper emphasizes the necessity of evaluating ethnomedicine's effectiveness within a broader health care context, given that a significant portion of the global population relies on these practices.
