Paperback. Modern medicine has separated human beings from nature. The author, a homoeopathic practitioner, contends that it is this inability to recognize wholeness that has caused medicine to reach a dead end. Parallel to the development of consciousness to its modern scientific objectivity, Twentyman discovers a changing pattern of health and disease in society. The prevalence of diseases like cancer and Parkinson's and new diseases like AIDS appears as part of this history. He regards the understanding of wholeness leads to the rediscovery of healing in its deeper sense to be a true art. Argues for new understanding and cooperation between modern mechanical medicine, psychology and homeopathy. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

In modern medicine, for all its brilliant achievements and progress, there is little concept of 'healing'. As human beings have become more separated from nature, many disciplines, including medicine, have lost sight of the bigger, holistic picture.
In this book, Ralph Twentyman, a homeopathic physician for many years, studies the workings of the human organism in conjunction with nature and the larger world around us. He explores the background and effects of various key elements in health and healing, ranging from sulfur and lead to silver, fungi and sepia, and also considers specific diseases such as migraine, asthma, cancer and AIDS.
He argues that as we stand, we will never fully be able to address and treat such illnesses without new understandings being forged between mechanical medicine, psychology and homeopathy.
