Holism, Chinese medicine and systems ideologies: rewriting the past to imagine the future

Description

EJOM (2016), Scheid, Volker.

Abstract

This paper explore the articulations that have emerged over the last half-century between various types of holism, Chinese medicine and systems biology. It was first published as a chapter in The Edinburgh Companion to the Critical Medical Humanities (Woods & Whitehead, Eds, 2016). It is an inquiry into the historical processes whereby Chinese medicine, holism and systems biology have come to be entangled with each other in the present and asks how we relate ourselves to the ongoing transformations of the world by the as yet unfinished project of modernity.
