From his perspective of forty years in the medical profession, Dr. Paul Brenner redefines the idea of health. No more and no less than the acceptance and appreciation of life, health is not simply the absence of illness. As the author comes to realize that we all have an innate wisdom of what's right for our bodies, he crystallizes the discontent with the medical profession and the hope that there is a better alternative to our definition of heath. The book is written from the often humorous perspective of a logic-driven realist who is reluctantly transformed by the wisdom of alternative therapies, by his acceptance of his own intuition and by the lessons on health and illness he learns from his patients. In effect, he concludes, his patients were healing him. This book is a tribute to patients everywhere who want their own wisdom and self-knowledge to be used by their practitioners in a partnership of life and health.
