Should be required reading for all young people in school. Vernon discusses practical concepts about how the human body can heal itself if you let it. The dangers of modern interventionist medicine and the cash machine it really is. Some interesting case studies and a look at how the mind effects the body and how the body attempts to protect itself in illness or stress. Treatment stems from there. Concept is very obvious once you read this book, recomend to anyone whos interested in self help or being a master of there own health instead of handing yourself over to a gp and straight for potions and balms!
