Dr Kottow in his paper Classical medicine v alternative medical practices (1) places the alternative/orthodox medicine debate within an historical context of anti-quackery literature. My paper explores the nature of science as it is applied to clinical practice and challenges the narrow view of the diagnostic process as outlined by Dr Kottow. Research methodologies more appropriate to 'whole person' medicine are suggested as having more ethical value than those based on the clinical trial.
科托博士在其论文《传统医学与替代医学实践》(1)中,将替代医学与正统医学的争论置于反庸医文献的历史背景之中。我的论文探讨了应用于临床实践的科学的本质,并对科托博士所概述的诊断过程的狭隘观点提出了挑战。文中指出,更适用于“整体医学”的研究方法比基于临床试验的方法具有更高的伦理价值。
