[Body language in live communication].
The core of every consultation is the patient-doctor interaction connected to the patient's problem. The physician's perception of this problem is based on an interpretation of words and of bodily signs. In Western medicine these two modes of expression are divided and separated from the relevant biographical connections. Taking case histories and clinical examination, defined and practised in accordance with the current epistemological traditions of science, unacceptably limit an understanding of human health or sickness. Some historical and theoretical traces are followed for the purpose of promoting a change in medical understanding.
