More About This Title EASTERN AND WESTERN APPROACHES TO HEALING: ANCIENT WISDOM AND MODERN KNOWLEDGE

Examines ancient practices, in light of modern knowledge, and reveals ways in which Eastern practices are being integrated into Western methods. This thought-provoking synthesis covers such topics as the mind-body problem, hypnosis, biofeedback and self-regulation, cerebral bilaterality, meditation and transcultural psychotherapy.
