Summary/Abstract: During the twentieth century, biomedicine lost its way: the art and humanity of medical practice were lost to rapid scientific advances and new technologies. The medical humanities arose to demonstrate the value and relevance of the arts and humanitiesin making medicine and health care more humane.

The second, related dogma is that the best or most healthy way to respond to illness is through narrative.
