Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
It is a tenet of holistic medicine that the body has many ways of healing itself, but the mechanisms by which it does so often have eluded scientific inquiry. In the past decade, practioners in a cross-disciplinary field known as psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) have begun to explore the relationship of mind, nervous system, and immune system in the healing process. This unique overview of PNI research describes its historical foundations, controversies, and future promises. Of interest to informed laypersons and health specialists, this is recommended for most public libraries and subject collections. Judith Eannarino, George Washington Univ. Lib., Washington, D.C.

This Book can only help. NOT Junk Science,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Healer Within: The New Medicine of Mind and Body (Paperback)
When I first heard about this book from a friend, I thought that it was most likely 'Junk Science'. I was very happy to find that it is truly a valuable book. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who is facing a serious illness. I think it is important to note that this book is not an alternative medicine philosophy book. I prefer to base my scientific beliefs on objective evidence

The healing so needed,
By hoshen (israel) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Healer Within: The New Medicine of Mind and Body
The need for the subject is enormous. We get so contributed by the book. We believe in respecting the human as a whole entity. The body reflects so much of our being that we need to understand and assess the meaning of the book. Let hope that an updated book will come soon. The conecction of mind and body reflects what is going on with the sociaty body and we need it very very much. Thank you.
