Can anyone explain to this non-native speaker of English  why that word
is "holistic" and not "wholistic" ?  I thought it came from "the whole",
precisely NOT from "the hole", since the wholistic view includes it all,
without any hole...

(Bad tongues say that "holistic healers" (sans w)  refers to the _hole_ in
 the customer's wallet that they make, or to the _holes_ (or hollowness) in
 the theory of some practitioners...)
