From Booklist
Readers of Andrew Weil's Spontaneous Healing (1995) will recognize Fulford, the osteopath whose remarkable success inspired Weil to seriously investigate "alternative" medicine. Now in his nineties, Fulford remains in (reduced) practice and here, with Stone's help, relays his advice for good health. That counsel arises from a conception of the body that is as holistic as many an Oriental medical system, as firmly based in love as Christianity. The body is composed of interdependent parts and functions; a problem manifested in one part or function may require ministering to others. Mental and emotional as well as physical traumas must be identified and treated, so Fulford seeks to know patients as persons. A good, individualized diet; easy, regular breathing; meditation; moderation in all things--especially, these days, in that other essential, exercise; and controlling desire are some of the things Fulford specifically enjoins. Given the sweetness of his voice and temperament as well as a large publicity effort by Pocket, his adviser just may match Weil's best-seller in popularity. Ray Olson
