DESCRIPTION
This book studies to discover the ancient roots of human thought concerning health and healing. Over the ages, dealing with illness has been an essential aspect of culture, and people everywhere have come up with unique solutions to this fundamental problem. Drawing upon an intimate relationship with a particular environment, treatments have evolved that range from herbs and foods to acupuncture needles. It describes remedies that can be quite effective for acute conditions and explores models of healing and energetic systems of medicine appropriate in treating chronic illness, where focusing on the symptom fails to address the deeper cause. The aim of the book is to bring much needed traditional wisdom and its relevance to the modern world.
