What People Are Saying

This superb collection of diverse essays not only traces the development of the leading fields of complementary medicine that have distinguished the mission of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, but it also provides an integrative perspective of a panoramic landscape that has emerged in the past 30 years. Marilyn Schlitz and her colleagues have drawn on an impressive array of writers who exemplify a grounded wisdom that simultaneously expands and integrates experience, knowledge, and consciousness. This is simply the most illuminating study of integral medicine to date -- one that will be cherished by scholars and practitioners for years to come.
