      ab: The author contends that psychiatry ought to be both a medical science and a healing art.

He adds that psychiatry should be a healing art in so far as it concerns itself with the inner world and intimate subjectivity of the patient. He also mentions the absence of conflict or incompatibility between these complementary realms.
