On Knowing and Not Knowing in the Anthropology of Medicine

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2016-07

  • Publisher: Routledge

Social scientific studies of medicine typically assume that systems of medical knowledge are uniform and consistent. But while anthropologists have long rejected the notion that cultures are discrete, bounded, and rule-drive entities, medical anthropology has been slower to develop alternative approaches to understanding cultures of health. This provocative volume considers the theoretical, methodological, and ethnographic implications of the fact that medical knowledge is frequently dynamic, incoherent, and contradictory, and that and our understanding of it is necessarily incomplete and partial. In diverse settings from indigenous cultures to Western medical industries, contributors consid...

"Loris Malaguzzi (1920 - 1994) was the pioneer of the Reggio Emilia approach to teaching young children. An ever-increasing number of teachers and educationalists from all over the world now come to study the Reggio pre-school's unique methods, and this is largely due to Malaguzzi's devotion, work and commitment over 45 years, and the small group of teachers and educators he trained and with whom he developed his methods. The principles that underpin the Reggio Emilia approach are fundamental to the way in which Early Childhood Education is being shaped around the world today.

Science Communication and Health

Communication is not only a means but also a place, where relationships establish. This book argues that a trustworthy relationship can be established through carefully managed communication. Thus, knowing and understanding language and its dynamic is essential to orient oneself during communication; this allows the speakers to fully take the opportunity to foster mutual trust. Knowing language does not only mean managing what is said, but especially being aware of what it implies, entails, and what is unsaid. This is especially true in the case of doctor-patient communication, where one of the speakers is also the subject of the speech. The author looks at the moment of interaction between the physician and the patient as the chance for building and consolidating a strong therapeutic alliance. If the chance is not taken or wisely managed, it could cause the opposite, i.e., loss of trust, also possibly influencing patient’s concordance to treatment. This unusual and valuable approach to doctor-patient communication has its roots in the philosophy of language, and the philosophy of science.
