«El estado oculto de la salud» is the philosophical essay by Hans-Georg Gadamer, published by Gedisa in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
The book starts from the idea that the art of healing is invisible: its greatest achievement is the absence of illness. Gadamer argues that health is a physical and psychic balance that differs in each person and that the physician must interpret it beyond objective science, as in philosophical hermeneutics. The work is a philosophy of medicine.
The book belongs to the Filosofía collection, CLA-DE-MA series, from Gedisa.
A book for philosophy readers and health professionals who want to understand the interpretive dimension of medical practice.
Hans-Georg Gadamer was a German philosopher of the continental tradition, best known for his 1960 magnum opus on hermeneutics, Truth and Method.
