Alternative medicine, once an anti-establishment outsider, has enjoyed such growing popularity in recent years that it has generated a new medical industry, complete with adherents, practitioners, researchers, lobbyists, and regulations. As it has grown, alternative medicine has gradually assumed a different position in the provision of health care. Combining ethnographic study with quantitative data, Judith Fadlon explains the popularity of alternative medicine, as well as the ease with which individuals now move between conventional and alternative medicine and between different alternative modalities. She concludes that alternative medicine has been undergoing domestication, a process by which the foreign is rendered familiar. Although the focus of the study is urban Israel, it is argued that domestication is a major force at work in a number of Western countries.

Mit dem Eröffnungsband der Reihe »Ars medicinae - Die Wissenschaft der Medizin und das Heil des Menschen« möchte die Initiative Gesundheit, ein Zusammenschluss von naturwissenschaftlich und geisteswissenschaftlich arbeitenden Ärzten, Forschern und Hochschullehrern, das weite Spektrum der Themen vorstellen, das sich in den Bänden der Reihe finden wird. Gewählt wurde aufgrund der Mannigfaltigkeit der Themen die Form einer Aufsatzsammlung, zu der Wissenschaftler aus verschiedenen Disziplinen eingeladen wurden. Als feldabsteckendes, themen- und problemeröffnendes Leitmotiv wurde für den Eröffnungsband das Thema 'Gesundheit' gewählt. Als Zweck des ärztlichen Handelns ist die Gesundheit historisch wie systematisch das Kernthema jedweden Medizinkonzeptes. Dem interdisziplinären Ansatz der Initiative Gesundheit entsprechend finden sich in diesem Band medizinisch, medizinhistorisch, philosophisch, theologisch, psychologisch und philologisch orientierte Aufsätze aus allen Epochen der Geschichte. This is the initial volume in a new series entitled Ars medicinae: The Science of Medicine and Human Salvation. The name of the association behind the series is Initiative Gesundheit (Health Initiative), which is made up of physicians, researchers, and university teachers working in the sciences and the humanities. This first publication is designed to reflect the broad range of subjects to be addressed in the volumes to come, the immense variety of which has prompted the editors to opt for a format that will do justice to this multiplicity. The leitmotif for the first installment is "health," a concept that both delineates the boundaries of the topics envisaged and provides an introduction to the issues and problems involved. In line with the interdisciplinary approach adopted by Initiative Gesundheit, the essays assembled in this volume approach the subject from the perspectives of medicine, medical history, philosophy, theology, and philology. Historically, the purview extends from antiquity to the present day.
