Produktbeschreibung
Today's medicine is strongly influenced by natural science, which focuses entirely on the material nature of reality. Molecular biology has become the foundation of modern medicine with the result that today's medical industry chases after technology to solve all its problems. In the process it is losing its own essence as it moves into fields increasingly alien to human nature as a whole. Nevertheless, many doctors are beginning to reexamine this exclusive worldview in favor of a more wholistic approach to healing. To this end, anthroposophical medicine encompasses a wide range of healing modalities, including orthodox, allopathic medicine. The Anthroposophical Approach to Medicine explores the body's relationship to soul and spirit on the basis of Rudolf Steiner's insights into the activities of the spiritual world. Edited by doctors Friedrich Husemann and Otto Wolff, this book invites us to an in-depth view of a true alternative to materialistically oriented medicine. Chapters include essays on childhood development and diseases; the disorders of old age; neuroses and psychological imbalances; pharmacology; healing plants; biochemistry and pathology; blood-work; and special diagnostic techniques. This first of a multi-volume series is an invaluable tool to all who want to extend the practice of medicine to include the whole human being.

He originally wanted to study theology (as his brotherGottfried did later on), but eventually decided on medicine. He met RudolfSteiner while a studying medicine, and finished his training in 1920 with aspecialty in psychiatry. Based on the fundamental ideas of Anthroposophy, Dr.Husemann developed a variation of conventional medical-therapeutic practice. Hedivided this model into three areas: physical therapy through medication andexternal applications; artistic therapy; and psychotherapy. In 1930, he foundedthe Wiesneck Sanatorium. It was later named after him as the Friedrich HusemannClinic in Buchenbach near Freiburg im Breisgau, which specializes in psychiatryand psychotherapy. The clinic continues to be based largely on Husemann's work.During the Nazi period, Friedrich Husemann sought to save the lives of hispatients and prevent them falling victim to the Nazi authorities.
