Abstract

Though this book is a reference text aimed at guiding consumers through the maze of Alternative Medicine, it can be useful resource for clinicians as well. The book is divided into 150 short chapters, each dedicated to one therapy or diagnostic method. Seven points are raised to assist patient in decision making, or at least, raise questions about the method, based on evidence. See sections 11.1 for Alternative Cancer cures; 11.7 Cancer diets.

Abstract

"The doula approach to death offers opportunities to explore the meaning of a life and to convey that meaning through legacy work. Based on the model of care provided by birth doulas, it emphasized thoughtful planning for how the last days should look, sound, and feel ... and provides emotional and spiritual support for both the dying person and their loved ones." - Cover
