  This is an exploration of psychological medicine in holistic practice, written especially for students and practitioners of, and those with an interest in, alternative medicine. It is aimed at those wishing to look more deeply into the emotional and mental aspects of illness. The book weaves a balance between a scientific approach towards health psychology and humanistic conceptions of medicine as a healing art. It presents a rigorous exposition of the theory and practice of health psychology from the standpoint of natural medicine and sets the causes of illness into perspective from a multicausal, biopsychosocial point of view.
