The Future of Medicine offers well-founded answers to the questions confronting the health care system in the United States. In examining the shortcomings of western medicine, it presents an insightful new approach. Western medicine has become too focused on "crisis care", caring and treating the individual after he or she has become ill or injured. The development of a new science of prevention can completely change the way society looks at health care. The key to developing this science lies not in reinventing it, but rather in adopting preventive elements found in several ancient medical systems.
The Future of Medicine is an important, revealing work that lays the groundwork for a future preventive medical system. The book's detailed exploration of the potential of Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine provides a unique and creative approach to solving the health care crisis and revitalizing the true spirit of medicine.
