About this title

Synopsis

Can conventional medicine meet the needs of every patient? Can current interest in complementary therapies be explained simply by communication problems between doctors and patients? Have technological advances in modern medicine resulted in de-personalization, and is the modern hospice movement society's reaction? Is complementary medicine scientific and is there any proof that it works? Should complementary practitioners be included in multidisciplinary teams to provide "whole person" care? Is there a role for Christian counselling? How does the layman view the medical scene? What are the implications of the present trend towards self-health? These and other questions are discussed in this report of a series of colloquia held at the Royal Society of Medicine, following a suggestion by His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales, who has contributed the foreword.
