[Internal medicine and psychosomatic medicine between dualism and monism]. / Medicina interna e medicina psicosomatica tra dualismo e monismo.

ABSTRACT

This paper investigates the possibility that psychosomatics could overcome the dualistic concept of a human being divided into mind and body. According to S. Freud's theories about the individual uniqueness and to G. A. Kelly's personal construct theory, the authors try to determine a monistic concept of the human being also from the clinical standpoint.
