西医和中医两千年的历史，从公元前几个世纪的起源，到当今分子生物学等科学的进步以及西方对传统中医的适应。在对支撑医学理论转变的基本力量的革命性解释中，Paul U. Unschuld 将欧洲和中国的医学史与政治、经济和其他背景因素的变化联系起来。温舒德利用他自己对中国原始资料的广泛研究以及他和其他人在欧洲医学史方面的学术成就，反对以前和现在、东方和西方的生理学和病理学模型中的任何“真理”主张。什么是医学？对医疗保健政策的讨论做出了雄辩而及时的贡献，同时阐明了医学认知动态的本质，并激发了关于医学试图管理人类有机体的本质和现实解释的新辩论。
tory of two millennia of Western and Chinese medicine from their beginnings in the centuries BCE through present advances in sciences like molecular biology and in Western adaptations of traditional Chinese medicine. In his revolutionary interpretation of the basic forces that undergird shifts in medical theory, Paul U. Unschuld relates the history of medicine in both Europe and China to changes in politics, economics, and other contextual factors. Drawing on his own extended research of Chinese primary sources as well as his and others' scholarship in European medical history, Unschuld argues against any claims of "truth" in former and current, Eastern and Western models of physiology and pathology. What Is Medicine? makes an eloquent and timely contribution to discussions on health care policies while illuminating the nature of cognitive dynamics in medicine, and it stimulates fresh debate on the essence and interpretation of reality in medicine's attempts to manage the human organism.
