After reading a philosophy of osteopathy I have a new found respect for medicine and the fields of human health and performance. I now have a background knowledge of the history of medicine. The pictures add a lot to the books depth.

This book is kind of hard to read. It is full of misspelled words and jumbles of letters. Maybe i got a bad copy, but I don't know why it was so poorly put together.
