True, but in the case of the book I was refering to, they took the documented physical ailments caused by the "witchcraft" and approached it through medical diagnostics. The doctors consulted weren't told anything but the symptoms, and they all fall under the perview of encephalitis. There are environmental elements that support the theory as well.

The downside to the book is that the author doesn't give any real treatment or due to any of the more traditional views of what happened.
