  • Title: Nursing's caring-healing paradigm as exemplar for alternative medicine?
    Author: Watson J.
    Journal: Altern Ther Health Med; 1995 Jul; 1(3):64-9. PubMed ID: 9359797.
    Abstract:
    This article provides an overview of the crisis in modern (biomedical) and postmodern (human) science and method. Nursing's evolving system of caring and healing, within a unitary-transformative context, is offered as an exemplar to the growing field of alternative medicine. This framework for viewing alternative medicine paradigms and problems unveils some converging worldview assumptions that transcend nursing and have relevance to all caring-healing practices.
