Overview
There have been many book on alternative therapies, particularly those tried and tested in different societies over many centuries and millennia. But the original texts are hard to find and remain largely unread. This book contains the original texts from 12 approaches to health and illness that have proved their worth, with short introductions to each text. They include: the original exposition of Yin and Yang as applied to human health and developed in China; the two systems of yoga from India; the advice of the Greek physician Hippocrates on self-treatment; the Tantra on health from Tibet; the original expositions of T'ai Chi; the dietry advice of Muhammed, the founder of Islam; the pyschological insights of the Persian physician, Razi; and the medical views of the German mystic, Hildegard.
