註釋Proponents and critics have different methodologies and standards of evidence--raising the question of how much pluralism is acceptable in a medical context--particularly in light of differing worldviews and the struggle to define medicine in the modern world. The contributors address both the methodological problems of assessment and the conflicting cultural perspectives at work in a patient's choice of treatment. Sympathic to CAM, the contributors nonetheless offer careful critiques of its claims and suggest a variety of ways it can be taken seriously, yet subject to careful scrutiny. [back cover].
