If I am alive or Leo Tolstoy in the space of medicine. Probleminsky c

This is a book of a biographer writer is not a doctor, a book is not so much about medicine - about the whole life of Leo Tolstoy, from birth “In a clear meadow on a leather sofa” until the last minutes for a previously little led railway station, upon arrival for which, which, which, is, He, the world famous, declared himself a "passenger of train No. 12." The book about the happy and woeful days of his life, about his work, spiritual searches, love, family... and - about medicine. In literary creativity, in deep thought about the world in himself and the world around, in everyday life, Leo Tolstoy insightfully investigated the indispensable, sometimes very complex ties of the spiritual and bodily beginning in every person. Overtaking the ideas of his time, he never torn one from the other, on the contrary, he constantly searched for new and new conjugation of the “dialectics of the soul” and “body dialectics”. His words “we treat the symptoms of the disease, and this is the main obstacle to the treatment of the disease itself” are the words of today's medicine, psychology, sociology, philosophy.

Tolstoy’s attitude to medicine, often mockingly critical, tough, can be completely understood and appreciated, only given the entire system of his views. The artist of Kramskaya, who created the first picturesque portrait of Leo Tolstoy, said that he had never met a person, "in whom all detailed judgments are connected with the general provisions, as radii with the center." The reader will have to get acquainted with Tolstoy’s biography, in a new way to see a lot in it, which seemed well known.
