Abstract

Ghost doctors in white coats. The topic surprised me and it kept going around in my mind (see previous editorial: The Strange Case of Galté). The article about the Chilean lawyer Galté is illustrative and exciting. Nevertheless, it is not the only one. There is a fair amount of literature on the subject and also renowned mediums who have published books. And, in spite of the fact that rational thought based on science leads to the dismissal of these testimonies, there are several authors, some of them with the gift of being a medium Van Praahg, et al. [1], and others who worked with them Kardec [2], who have international prestige. Their texts embrace the relevance and value of “traditional” medicine, whether it be Western medicine or its variants.
