Mary Ruggie stresses that, although physicians also use informal knowledge from their clinical experience to understand patients and their needs, they rely on formal knowledge, based on science, to understand medicine. Thus, if CAM is going to become a legitimate part of health care, physicians must insist that scientific research prove its safety and efficacy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Ruggie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521834295\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521834292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/08\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.16w x 0.82d","brand":"Mary Ruggie","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47757493108991,"sku":"9780521834292","price":74.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4e7bd4bd-5183-4154-bc60-3b27d9f9d810.jpg?v=1765510337","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/marginal-to-mainstream-mary-ruggie-9780521834292","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
