| "Neither osteopathy nor surgery, let alone
dentistry would have got very far by ignoring it (the organic approach)...They
are directly related to mental operations, which are developed in
the philosophy of Phenomenology, itself a post-Cartesian outlook.
Relating this method to current philosophy of science it (osteopathy)
cannot be judged in any way less powerful than Cartesian science,
for while the latter has no verification procedure, relying upon
falsification alone, Goethean science entails both falsification
and verification, and thus might even be said to be more complete
than Cartesian. Again, the only real problem with this approach
is the fact that very few know if its existence." |
