Description
A contribution by Michaela Glöckler
Foundation of a Christian Study of Substances and Medicine
The lecture introduces the genesis and the deep spiritual background of the book “Fundamentals of Therapy” by Rudolf Steiner and Ita Wegman. It recounts how laboriously this work came about shortly before Steiner’s death, why individual observation is more important for every case history than mere laws of nature, and how anthroposophic medicine seeks to understand the human being with his four constituent members in health and illness.
A contribution by Michaela Glöckler to the International Annual Conference 2025 of the Medical Section at the Goetheanum.
