Summary:	This book discusses the anthropological background of the rise of scientific medicine from 1800 and its status in relation to faith and nature-based healing methods. This dichotomy is an economic and political issue as well, because more and more patients are rejecting treatment through the Norwegian National Health establishment, and finding relief for illness through "warm-handed" practitioners.
