The Roots of Health by Romy Fraser
The advances of modern biomedicine have provided a sophisticated but somewhat mechanistic approach to health. It is an approach which is able to function well in emergencies, but which has fallen down in the more basic areas of maintaining and creating health. Dazzled by the progress of science, we have lost touch with the simple remedies and body wisdom that were once a part of every household. This Briefing suggests that Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) has a central part to play in the future of health care. Both by looking into the past and reclaiming some of the more traditional views of disease, and by looking into the future and encouraging the application of appropriate research.Sandra Hill worked as a features writer and education editor for publications in New Jersey and Pennsylvania for over ten years. She is the author of nearly forty books, including The Reluctant Viking, The Pirate Bride, and Sweeter Savage Love, which have all been New York Times bestsellers.
