Dr. Marc S. Micozzi describes the healing systems of Middle Asia (India, Tibet, and the Middle East) in some detail - from the Ayurveda and Siddha medicines of India, to the Unani and Sufi healing practices of the Middle East. He explains the basic principles and methods, putting them briefly into historical context and also providing a context to understand them within the framework of Western medical, and to some extent spiritual, thought. Dr. Micozzi unfolds the compelling idea that vital energy, expressed as "prana" in the Indian practice of Ayurveda, is the unifying concept that underpins and connects all of these traditions.
This groundbreaking book will be of interest to practitioners of all Middle Eastern and Asian medical traditions, complementary and alternative health practitioners, and anyone with an interest in Middle Eastern and Asian approaches to health and well-being.
