witches and faith healers were branded by Hippocrates as charlatans and quacks’ (p.101).<br />
Kheel thus links the demise of holistic healing to some of the principles espoused by<br />
Hippocrates. She also links patriarchal domination to the destruction of holistic healing, which<br />
was practised primarily by women. She asserts that the Greeks were the beginnings, in the<br />

Goddess-worshipping cultures of the pre-patriarchal world. This mentality is perpetuated by<br />
metaphors such as the ‘war’ against disease.<br />
