Endorsements for the series

Larry Dossey, MD, Author, The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things
" Whole Person Health Care is a glimpse into the future of healing. It is a magnificent effort, bringing together authorities who have made landmark contributions in fashioning a form of healthcare that honors all we are--body, mind, spirit. These volumes demand our attention, because no other approach to healing deserves to be called scientific or humane."

David Rakel, MD, Director, UW Integrative Medicine, University of Wisconsin Medical School
" This three volume set is a complete and useful guide to empowering the learner to provide whole person care. The authors and editors have done an excellent job taking an often "grey" subject and applying expertise to make it useful and practical. It will help prepare for the health care of the future which will be whole person and healing oriented."

Alan Combs, author of The Radiance of Being
"
This ground-breaking collection edited by Ilene Serlin brings to full realization a remarkable new phase in the reunion of mind, body, and spirit."
