title: [Specialization and dehumanization of medicine].
abstract: A landmark of our times is the preeminence of technology. The old idea of man achieving a better destiny through effort and self improvement has been displaced by the use of technology which is right here to provide everything, to instantly convert future in present. Contemporary Medicine is committed to technology, but this leads to a fragmentation of man in ever smaller segments. As a consequence a real knowledge of the sick individual becomes impossible, his self consciousness, his intimal life and vital projects become inaccessible to the doctor.
