There
are many pictures of the world created in the world, such as
scientific, cultural, philosophical, religious, physical,
metaphysical, chemical, biological,
evolutionary, socio-economic, linguistic, technical and others.
The fragmentation of knowledge does not allow us to perceive and
know the whole world and ourselves in a holistic way.
Over time, I have come to the sad conclusion
that the path that medicine has chosen
today,
that is, development within the
scientific-biological paradigm, or
biocentrism, leads to a dead end.
This affects the possibilities of medical
care, especially in chronic diseases.
Yes, medicine uses the achievements and
successes of various sciences, especially
biology,
but it does not have an independent system
of scientific ideas.
It is developing on the basis of the
doctrine of general human pathology – a
doctrine that is, in essence,
purely biological.
In it, man is reduced to a mechanism, at
best – to an organism, but in no way to
"homo sapiens", a rational person.
Perhaps that is why we see the greatest
successes in those areas of medicine
that depend on technological capabilities –
operations, transplants, etc.
Chronic diseases do not belong to this
category.

Similar problems exist in other areas of
life,
which encourages us to look for new ways of
development and improvement.
