medicine, philosophy, holism, naturalism, technologyAbstract
Based on the path presented in Saborido (2020), this article aims to delve into two key issues that are developed there. In the first place, the discussion about the naturalism/holism dichotomy, in order to delimit the field of controversies. Second, the distinction between the scientific and technological aspects of medicine. The analysis of both points will allow us to propose a meta-theoretical alternative of holistic medicine, accompanying the author’s proposal. Finally, we will present some conclusions of a propositional nature, which we hope will enrich the contributions made by the book.
