Clinical Practice of Complementary, Alternative, and Western Medicine

This is a scientifically based text that informs and leads the practitioner easily through the maze of alternative therapies. Unlike other books that address the different alternative modalities, this text integrates homeopathy, acupuncture, Chinese herbology, western herbology, and clinical nutrition, then combines them with traditional western medicine. The author explains the new paradigm of patient-centered and integrated medicine and includes an extensive section on the physical underpinnings of this new paradigm, a paradigm that employs thermodynamics, nonlinear dynamics, chaos theory, and fractal geometry in an easy-to-understand discourse.Diamond, W.
