Medical concepts are well explained in layman language. Principles of moderation, following yogic way of life, harmony with surroundings are great tools in self management of most of the diseases. Book extends its support in conveying limits of Yoga and consideration of other lines of medicine. It gives hope that we can live well without outsourcing our health to others.

This is a good edition for my reference library for my work as a yoga therapist. I haven't read it cover-to-cover...just a reference for when I need it.
