Synopsis "The Elements of Cure"
Today, medicine has no language of cure. The word cure is used extensively for marketing purposes, but not medically defined. Many medical dictionaries fail to provide an entry for cure, cures, curing, or cured. No medical reference provides a recognized scientific medical definition of cure. The word cure is used rarely and inconsistently. Do we cure an illness, a disease, or a patient? Conventional medicine sometimes debates but provides no authoritative answer. Modern medicine treats diseases without defining cured. Without a language of cure, cures are impossible to see, even when they occur. This book defines a language of cure. A cure is a cure of an illness, a specific case with an individual patient, an anecdote. A single cure is an elementary cure, an element of cure. A cure element cures an element of illness. An element of illness has a single cause. A single cure is also a cause: the cause of a cure. A cause that leads to a cure is a cure cause. How many cure elements are needed to cure a case of disease? Do different diseases have different elements? Do different cases of the disease have different elements? Let's begin a study of cure, at the elements of cure. Tracy Kolenchuk is the founder of Healthicine, the Arts and Sciences of Health and Healthiness. In his quest to understand health, he was surprised to learn that "cure" is not defined medically. This led to a three-year project to understand the meanings of cure, cures, curing and cured.
