Title: Human Effect in Medicine
Description: "How is modern medicine failing? Why is a more human approach required? This book challenges the dogma of modern technological medicine that ignores both the therapeutic effect of the doctors and the self-healing powers of the patient. It reviews the vast weight of evidence on the effectiveness of this 'human effect', and uses the evidence to describe how to use the human effect in everyday practice." "Thoroughly referenced, it is vital for general practitioners, and also very relevant to all doctors, nurses, health managers, policy makers and indeed patients."--BOOK JACKET.
