to health and disease. Jack Raso combines his own personal experience with “alternative” healthcare, in-depth research on the wide variety of methodologies, and an educational background in health science and nutrition to simplify the often confusing field of “alternative” healing techniques. Raso begins with an account of his own personal odyssey from believer to skeptic, demonstrating how easily a person raised in a devoutly religious tradition accepts supernatural explanations and mystical approaches to physical ailments. Raso examines the philosophic underpinnings of “alternative” medicine as well as such techniques as hands-on healing, Qigong, and faith healing. He shows that, whatever the specific philosophy, the common denominator is a rejection of the scientific approach of modern medicine in favor of a belief in paranormal forces that influence the well-being of mind and body. The final section is a firsthand account of Raso’s many revealing visits to various “alternative” medical practitioners. The book concludes with an encyclopedic glossary of “alternative” healthcare terminology that explains to the uninitiated the formidable jargon so often used by proponents of “alternative” treatments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e** Ex-library book ** in good condition; covers are showing minor signs of wear; no rips, tears or marks – see photos for condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"clearfix\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping cost:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003efree shipping\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery time:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eup to 5 working days\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003ePayment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe accept the following payment methods:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaypal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease contact us if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003eService\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eselbe Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45052762882187,"sku":"13704 S3\/MM SS","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/0559\/0923\/files\/57_fce4bb84-9064-40da-8bec-99fdac9a272f.jpg?v=1767153028","url":"https:\/\/eselbebooks.com\/products\/alternative-healthcare-a-comprehensive-guide-1994-by-jack-raso-hardback-wi","provider":"Eselbe Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
