About this product
Product Information
During the course of the Zollikon Seminars, held with a group of doctors and psychiatrists, Heidegger insisted that the human body was no mere bounded biological body-object but a living embodiment of the human being. In doing so, he undermined the very notion that human being or Dasein could be divided into separate entities labelled psyche and soma. As a result, he raised questions that challenged the very foundations of medicine - including psychosomatic medicine . For all medical explanations of illness has so far avoided the central question of what illness itself essentially is - reducing it either to a somatic , psychological or psychosomatic phenomena. Medard Boss tells us that it was Heidegger's hope that his thinking would escape the confines of the philosopher's study and become of benefit to wider circles, in particular to a large number of suffering human beings. Attempts to fulfil this hope have focused almost exclusively on bringing Heideggerian thinking to bear in the field of psychotherapy and in the understanding of psychological disorders and mental illness. The relevance of the Zollikon Seminars for our understanding of somatic disorders and physical illness - indeed the entire domain of medicine - have been largely neglected. This neglect has perpetuated in practice the very separation of psyche and soma which Heidegger questioned in principle. The aim of Heidegger, Medicine and Scientific Method is to help make sure that the profound implications of the Zollikon Seminars for medical science and medical practice do not remain unheeded. In one short volume Peter Wilberg concisely summarises Heidegger's critique of scientific method as this is applied in medicine, redefines the basic principles of the phenomenological method and sets out the foundations of a new field-phenomenological approach to medicine. Grounded in Heidegger's fundamental distinction between the physical body and the lived or felt body, field-phenomenological medicine offers a new but highly practical understanding of the relation between a patient's disease pathology and the felt dis-ease or pathos that it embodies. As an antidote to the controversy surrounding Heidegger's notorious period of involvement with National Socialism, Wilberg also emphasises that Heidegger's thinking was and remains the only thinking capable of challenging the scientific foundations of race-genetic ideology - and with it the whole bio-genetic ideology of modern medicine. This is an ideology which Nazi medical scientists helped to spawn, one which sees no human meaning in illness, and aims at nothing less than finding final medical-model solutions to all forms of social and individual dis-ease and distress.

The book arrived well packed get & I pristine condition at a good price. I would have liked it by 1st class post & I contacted this Seller via EBAY 'CONTACT' but got NO RESPONSE via either my email account or on ebay and certainly not in my Spam folder...SO what can you say I was inconvenienced a bit but got a positive outcome? I think they're reliable for transactions but something is remiss with electronic communication via EBAY or perhaps not tech savvy or disinterested or unwell etc..

As usual with this seller, the book was exactly as described and very well packed. However, delivery times can vary significantly. This was one of 4 books ordered at the same time. Two arrived in about a week, but this one took almost 3 weeks. A reliable seller who answers questions promptly, but could improve on dispatch times.

If you're happy to buy it now, receive it sometime in the future, this is the seller for you. Strangely nebulous and self destructive despatch times for a modern business, but, I've got my book, it was reasonably priced, packed okay and as described so a perfectly decent transaction. Happy enough customer, all fine.
