Discover a transformative exploration of healing in the groundbreaking book by ethnopsychiatrist Tobie Nathan and philosopher Isabelle Stengers. This insightful text, published in 2018 by John Wiley & Sons, delves into the intricate dynamics between traditional and modern medicine. With 220 pages of profound analysis, the authors challenge the popular beliefs surrounding healers and medical practitioners, presenting a compelling argument against the conventional split between 'irrational' therapies and scientific medical practices.This enlightening book reveals that healers utilize unique methods of 'divination' instead of mere diagnosis, showcasing the complexity and richness of healing traditions from different cultures. By illustrating how symptoms can be linked to external forces beyond the patient's consciousness, Nathan and Stengers invite readers to reconceptualize their understanding of illness and treatment methodologies. The common belief that modern medicine is solely rational is questioned, revealing an empirically driven approach that often neglects patients' voices.
By bridging the gap between various healing paradigms, this ethnopsychiatric manifesto encourages us to embrace a more holistic perspective on health. Discover how a deeper understanding of both traditional and modern practices can enhance therapeutic outcomes and foster a richer dialogue between diverse healing cultures.

Description:
We think we know what healers do: they build on patients™ irrational beliefs and treat them in a Âsymbolic™ way. If they get results, it™s thanks to their capacity to listen, rather than any influence on a clinical level. At the same time, we also think we know what modern medicine is: a highly technical and rational process, but one that scarcely listens to patients at all. In this book, ethnopsychiatrist Tobie Nathan and philosopher Isabelle Stengers argue that this commonly posed opposition between traditional and modern medicine is misleading. They show instead that healers are interesting precisely because they don™t listen to patients, using techniques of Âdivination™ rather than Âdiagnosis™. Healers construct genuine therapeutic strategies by identifying the origins of symptoms in external forces, outside of the mind of the sufferer. Modern medicine, for its part, is characterized by empiricism rather than rationality. What appears to be the pursuit of rationality is ultimately only a means to dismiss and exclude other forms of treatment. Blurring the distinctions between traditional and modern practices and drawing on perspectives from across the globe, this ethnopsychiatric manifesto encourages us to think in radically new ways about illness, challenging accepted notions on the relationship between sufferer and symptom.

Easy to use
Color: black
This dash cam was very easy to install and the video quality is super clear, even at night. I like that it records both the front and inside of the car, which makes me feel safer while driving. The screen is simple to use and the camera works smoothly without issues.

Great camera! Great quality!! Easy to use!!
Color: dark
I purchased this dash cam for added security while driving and when my car is parked, and I’ve been really impressed with how well it works. The video quality is sharp and steady, and it captures way more detail than I expected from such a small camera. Both the front and inside views record clearly, which makes it great for everyday driving.
The night recording is one of my favorite features. Even in very low light or complete darkness, the footage comes out clear and easy to see. Faces and surroundings show up well without any harsh glare, which makes a big difference at night.
Setup was simple and didn’t take much time at all. It sticks securely to the windshield and hasn’t moved once. The menu is easy to understand. I also like having features like loop recording, impact detection that saves important clips, motion sensing, and parking mode for extra security when the car is off.
Overall, this dash cam does exactly what I was hoping for and more. It’s easy to install, reliable day and night, and makes me feel much more comfortable whether I’m on the road or away from my car. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a solid dash cam.
