Clinician's Guide to Holistic Medicine

This book includes both conventional and alternative approaches to all common diseases. Organized by disease category, which is consistent with the way clinicians think and practice medicine, the book incorporates the medical terminology used in primary care practice. It incorporates the philosophical underpinnings of holistic medicine centering on key aspects of health promotion, prevention and treatment directed at giving the patient the best opportunity to experience "optimum health."

First sentence: In recent years, four terms have come to be used to described "non-conventional," "unconventional" or "non-traditional" forms of medical practice in nations where the dominant medical practice model is "allopathic."
