5). Alternative Medicine is Holistic, Western Medicine is Reductionist By : Daryl Kulak
The major difference between alternative medicine, or what I'll call holistic health, and Western medicine, is in approach.

6). Holistic Holism By : Ryan Fyfe
The root for the word Holism goes back to Early Greek, meaning that 'properties of a system cannot be determined or explained by the sum of its components alone'. First coined as a word by Jan Smuts in about 1922, and used to define "The tendency in nature to form wholes that are greater than the sum of the parts through creative evolution." Often times described as the opposite of reductionism, holism may also be contrasted with atomism.
