Rudolf Steiner’s anthroposophical medicine, founded in the   early part of the twentieth century, renews the origin of Western medicine. But   unlike many modern medical practices based on reductionist, materialistic   thinking, Steiner’s holistic system encompasses a picture of the human being as   an entity of body, soul, and spirit. Anthroposophical medicine brings harmony to   these different aspects of the human constitution.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp class=\"MsoBodyText\" style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 6pt\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"2\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Arial\"\u003eVictor Bott, a medical doctor, offers a comprehensive overview of   this remarkable system of medicine. He presents a new approach to understanding   various types of diseases, including a discussion on the stages of human   development; the roles of organs such as the lungs, liver, kidneys, and heart;   specific diseases; and indications about why people become ill.
