  Chronic illness presents us with an insoluable paradox, and unless that paradox is confronted, no significant healing can take place. Illness should not be cured or eradicated as a foreign agent in the body, but rather transformed as part of one's being. From this premise, this book takes a journey beyond the physical manifestations of illness to its mental and spiritual roots. Using well-known myths as vehicles to understanding the struggles and decisions that underlie illness, the authors relate these stories to both case histories and their own personal experience.
