Beschreibung
As a traditional healing art that has established a contemporary global
presence, Chinese medicine defies categories and raises many interesting
questions. If Chinese medicine is "traditional," why has it not
disappeared with the rest of traditional Chinese society? If, as some
claim, it is a science, what does that imply about what we call science?
What is the secret of Chinese medicine's remarkable adaptability that
has allowed it to prosper for more than 2,000 years? In Chinese Medicine in Contemporary China
Volker Scheid presents an ethnography of Chinese medicine that seeks to
answer these questions, but his ethnography is informed by some
atypical approaches.
