Alternative Medicine (Book, Library binding)

So much information is available on the topic of alternative medicine that it can be difficult and confusing to wade through it, let alone make sense of it. This book uses interesting composite case histories to highlight the major areas of alternative medicine (herbal remedies, homeopathy, chiropractic, acupuncture, hypnosis, among others), discussing the various treatments, how they are applied, and how alternative medicine as a whole differs from Western medicine. As alternative therapies continue their move into the mainstream, this will be the most up-to-date resource available for young readers.
