Caring is ancient as the world and cultural as diversity of humanity

Abstract

This article describes my encounter with Anthropology and the experiences that transformed my philosophy, my conception of human beings and my initial profession. Nursing and Anthropology have been far from each other for over a century and there are historical roots explaining such fact has without necessary justifying it. The science of care is linked to culture and my purpose is to introduce the theoretical, philosophical and methodological interest for Nursing.
