Phenomenology attempts to reveal and understand the individual’s perception of an experience. Bohman is using a transcendental Holism that is useful to a phenomenologist as it frames an understanding on the nature of interpretation. Coming from a nursing perspective Holism treats the whole person rather than just the problem. The theory is that there is an interconnection between the parts that constitute the whole. With such an interconnection the parts cannot be wholly understood without understanding the whole. This is circular, reiterative and integrated. Therefore this is helpful to a phenomenological hermeneutic circle being applied to interpret and understand how people perceive and experience an interaction in their lives.
