Abstract

The general topic "Ethnomedical fundaments in the work of Viktor von Weizsäcker" might create the impression of Weizsäcker's work to be founded on concepts so specific as to serve as an immediate basis for ethno-anthropological research. But Weizsäcker has in fact not expressedly spoken of ethnomedical fundaments or tried to substantiate such phenomena.
