The Holistic Hippocrates: 'Treating the Patient, Not Just the Disease'
King, Helen. "The Holistic Hippocrates: ‘Treating the Patient, Not Just the Disease’." Hippocrates Now: The ‘Father of Medicine’ in the Internet Age. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2020. 133–154.

Holism today presents itself as a return to a superior past, and brings Hippocrates in as part of this strategy. Th e model of the history of medicine implicit – or sometimes explicit – in holistic users of Hippocrates is one in which there was a golden age until ‘the turn away from holism in medicine allowed diseases to be located in specifi c organs, tissues or cells’.1 While there is something in this where ancient medicine is concerned, with its basis in fl uids rather than organs, this is of course also a tried and tested strategy for convincing an audience of the value of a ‘new’ thing: you claim it is ‘old’, or ancient, or just traditional. -

Pseudoscience and Science Fiction Science and Fiction
Andrew May Pseudoscience and Science Fiction Science and Fiction Editorial Board Mark Alpert Philip Ball Gregory Benford Michael Brotherton Victor Callaghan Amnon H Eden Nick Kanas Geoffrey Landis Rudi Rucker Dirk Schulze-Makuch Ru€diger Vaas Ulrich Walter Stephen Webb Science and Fiction – A Springer Series This collection of entertaining and thought-provoking books will appeal equally to science buffs, scientists and science-fiction fans. It was born out of the recognition that scientific discovery and the creation of plausible fictional scenarios are often two sides of the same coin. Each relies on an understanding of the way the world works, coupled with the imaginative ability to invent new or alternative explanations—and even other worlds. Authored by practicing scientists as well as writers of hard science fiction, these books explore and exploit the borderlands between accepted science and its fictional counterpart. Uncovering mutual influences, promoting fruitful interaction, narrating and analyzing fictional scenarios, together they serve as a reaction vessel for inspired new ideas in science, technology, and beyond. Whether fiction, fact, or forever undecidable: the Springer Series “Science and Fiction” intends to go where no one has gone before! Its largely non-technical books take several different approaches. Journey with their authors as they • Indulge in science speculation—describing intriguing, plausible yet unproven ideas; • Exploit science fiction for educational purposes and as a means of promoting critical thinking; • Explore the interplay of science and science fiction—throughout the history of the genre and looking ahead; • Delve into related topics including, but not limited to: science as a creative process, the limits of science, interplay of literature and knowledge; • Tell fictional short stories built around well-defined scientific ideas, with a supplement summarizing the science underlying the plot. -

Live Blood Analysis: Science Or Quackery?
Live Blood Analysis: Science or Quackery? by Dr O. R. Botha from Neogenesis Systems We receive enquiries from time to time about the scientific basis of live blood analysis. Many people are concerned by the many sites on the internet claiming that live blood analysis is pseudoscience and nothing more than a gimmick used by quacks to sell you something. It is criticised for not being scientifically tested like other medical tests and the conclusion is made that therefore it can not have any real value as an investigative tool. The internet is a platform through which people can express their views and opinions freely. One can find numerous websites dedicated to exposing quackery and pseudoscience that apply these labels to homeopathy, herbalism, detoxification treatments, iridology and essentially anything that doesn’t involve drugs or surgery. Many of these articles are written by people who have no medical training and who are completely ignorant about the modality they are condemning. I recently came across such a website where the author claimed that a live blood sample will have red cell aggregation in one area and appear normal in other areas, simply because of how the sample is prepared. He then proceeded to explain how a peripheral blood smear is prepared with two slides. Had the author taken the time to look into live blood analysis in more detail, he would have discovered that live blood specimens are not at all prepared like peripheral blood smears. In a live blood specimen a single drop of blood is placed on a small cover slip, which is then placed on the slide, allowing the blood to spread evenly. -
