Medicine at the Crossroads
A Global View from Agriculture to Integrative Medicine
Cordell E. Logan, Ph.D., N.D.
This book contains a broad spectrum of health issues, including a historical view and the interaction of agriculture with medicine. It begins with a history of medicine so we can be better understand ourselves and our health. It adds the American collection and peaks into why America opened the door to bring in the golden age of medicine. Then we examine some political aspects, some medical conditions, and health issues. Alternative medicine has blossomed and continues to do so. We examine some fascinating insights into alternative medicine and argue that there is a scientific bases to much of this.
We will never increase health in a major way until we correct agriculture. Thus we blend in this with medicine. Educational and political aspects interact here as well. With the broad mindset of this book, it is hoped intelligent decisions can be made, all the way from political inputs to what's in the medicine cabinet at home.
No other modern book has compiled the broad historical sweep, encompassing medicine, agriculture, and plain common sense, the way this book does. This book is profusely referenced (these references are included) to give the reader a reliable base from which to think and evaluate. It makes no apologies to any political, religious, or historical data but seeks to present “the facts” as well as possible. It has 345 pages.
