"Mai come in questo periodo la medicina ha esibito la sua potenza tecnologica, e mai come ora ha mostrato una crisi profonda di credibilità da parte dei pazienti. Che cosa è accaduto del rapporto tra il medico e il paziente? Che cosa rende l'incontro medico il luogo di un dialogo frammentario e frustrante? Perché la medicina non risponde alle domande più concrete che i pazienti pongono? Il medico pretende di imporre la sua razionalità e di catalogare le credenze della medicina popolare come superstizione. Tuttavia, così facendo, impedisce di comprendere la narrazione del paziente, le sue ragioni profonde."
"Biomedicine is often thought to provide a universal, scientific account of the human body and illness. In this view, non-Western and folk medical systems are regarded as systems of "belief" and subtly discounted. This is an impoverished perspective for understanding illness and healing across cultures, one that neglects many facets of Western medical practice and obscures its kinship with healing in other traditions. Drawing on his research in several American and Middle Eastern medical settings, Professor Good develops a critical, anthropological account of medical knowledge and practice. He shows how physicians and healers enter and inhabit distinctive worlds of meaning and experience. He explores how stories or illness narratives are joined with bodily experience in shaping and responding to human suffering. And he argues that moral and aesthetic considerations are present in routine medical practice as in other forms of healing."
