HEALING POWER OF ILLNESS by Dahlke Rudiger

This radical book deprives us of illness as an alibi for our unresolved problems. It attempts to show that the patient is not the innocent victim of some quirk of nature, but actually the author of his or her own sickness. In this way Dethlefsen and Dahlke bring the metaphysical aspect of illness to the fore. From this viewpoint symptoms are seen to be bodily expressions of psychological conflicts, able through their symbolism to reveal the patient's current problems.
German-born Thorwald Dethlefsen is probably best known as a spiritual psychologist. He combines the qualifications of a trained psychologist with the insight gained through a deep study of the spiritual traditions. He runs a private institute in Munich as well as holding regular courses and speaking at lectures and conferences worldwide. Along with his co-author Rudiger Dahlke MD, his work opens up completely new areas of thought regarding the understanding of illness.
