Definición

  • Medicine—the science and art of diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease—has often been tied to beliefs about religion and the supernatural. In North America, religion and medicine have been joined together both in Native American healing traditions and through a long history of Christian engagement with medical practice and its moral implications.
