Narrative Medicine: The Use of History and Story in the Healing Process
by Madrona Lewis Mehl
A professor of family medicine and psychiatry, Mehl-Madrona avoids a "problem-based" vantage point, addressing root causes where conventional medicine addresses symptoms, using the body's natural tendency toward harmony and balance where others use drugs. Mehl-Medrona invites readers into powerful tribal talking circles, as well as the sweatlodge, where patients conceptualize illness as an entity to battle.
