Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Siegel is a surgeon and modern-day medicine man who believes too many physicians treat their patients as machines that must be "fixed" rather than humans who need healing in their lives as well as their bodies. The three titles in this collection emphasize connections among mind, spirit, and body and the importance of each of these elements in the overall health of individuals. Two of the titles, Love, Medicine & Miracles and Peace, Love & Healing, explain how mind-body healing can help stabilize or eliminate disease. They contain many of the same observations and anecdotes; even the meditation exercises included at the end of these tapes are near duplicates. The third title, Prescriptions for Living, has a different focus, discussing ways to prevent illness from occurring in the first place. The author offers a heartfelt reading of his work that gives credibility and authority to his message. Many of his conclusions are based on personal experiences as a practicing physician and feedback from patients with life-threatening illnesses. Some suggestions are unconventional, and references to God as "She" in the third tape may offend more conservative listeners. Any one of these books would be a worthwhile addition to the self-help or spirituality category, but the entire package may be more appropriate for large public libraries with extensive collections in the above areas.ASusan Dunman, Murray State Univ., KY

About the Author

Bernie Siegel, M.D. embraces a philosophy that is at the forefront of a society grappling with medical ethics and spiritual issues. His books, Love, Medicine and Miracles published in 1986, Peace, Love and Healing in 1989, and How to Live Between Office Visits in 1993, have broken new ground in the field of healing. Over the span of twenty years, physicians have become increasingly more receptive to his message. Bernie's efforts have now turned toward humanizing medical care and medical education, and he continues to travel extensively with his wife Bobbie, to speak and run workshops, sharing his techniques and experiences. Bernie and Bobbie have five children and six grandchildren (so far).

This review is from: Dr. Bernie Siegel's Audio Collection: Prescriptions For Living / Peace, Love & Healing / Love, Medicine & Miracles (Audio Cassette)

I think anyone facing a life threatening disease would find solace and down to earth advice from Bernie. He is a oncologist who is not afraid to let the patient be a human being and have them come first. He does not treat "doctoring" like a business. He lets people know about the healing due to the mind/body connection and gives everyone hope. By the end of the tapes he feels like a personal friend. Even if you are not seriously ill he helps you learn about being positive in the face of challenges and resolve problems in your life now that hold you back from your true happiness so you will not succumb to stress related illnesses.
