The Dynamic Heart and Circulation: Dynamic Heart and Circulation
Book information
Description
Based on years of phenomenological research, doctors, scientists, and teachers present dynamic pictures of the circulatory system that give perspective to the prevailing mechanistic ideas that dominate science and medicine today. People today are usually taught that the heart is only a pump. This book transcends this narrow view and restores life to our understanding of the heart and circulation. These essays, inspired by a Goethean view of nature and science, attempt to portray rather than explain. Some give precise descriptions of physiological processes, while others portray the heart and circulation within broader developmental and evolutionary contexts. Craig Holdrege is the director of The Nature Institute in Harlemville, New York. The institute is dedicated to research and educational activities that apply a Goethean, phenomena-centered method.www.natureinstitute.org. Contents: 1.
