This book is an excellent presentation of the complexity of Tibetan Medicine in a simple yet thorough format the western mind can understand. The authors describe Tibetan Medicine as a truly integrative system that weaves together body, mind & spiritual aspects to balance a being’s healthful energies. Just as the mind can create suffering and disease, Buddhist practice and meditation is included to help decrease human suffering through understanding. This emphasis on the whole person brings new relevance of this book to Karma & Dharma practice. Highly recommended reading to Tibetan Medicine patients, students and healthcare professionals.

Cameron and Namdul understand that Tibetan medicine and Western medicine are all too often seen as competing paths to physical and emotional healing. They present a thorough and accessible summary of what ancient Tibetan medicine excels at as well as what Western medicine does best. Their hope in their collaboration is that both disciplines can get past entrenched biases, understand that neither approach need be in conflict but can complement one another for the betterment of us all.
