"Puzzling Questions" and the Poetry of Healing.
Rojcewicz, Stephen
Journal of Poetry Therapy, v8 n4 p179-83 Sum 1995
Suggests that a quote from the 17th-century English physician and writer Thomas Browne captures the essence of the poetry of healing. Argues that healing, at its highest calling, combines the technical mastery of the problem with the response of the whole human being to the mystery; and that this many-faceted response is poetry.
