In the best-selling companion volume to the PBS series, acclaimed television journalist Bill Moyers explores the fascinating, complex, powerful connection between mind and body in human health. Ancient medical science told us our minds and bodies are one. So did philosophers of old. Now, modern science and new research are helping us to understand these connections.
In Healing and the Mind, Bill Moyers talks with physicians, scientists, therapists, and patients - people who are taking a new look at the meaning of sickness and health. In a series of fascinating and provocative interviews, he discusses their search for answers to perplexing questions: How do emotions translate into chemicals in our bodies? How do thoughts and feelings influence health? How can we collaborate with our bodies to encourage healing?
With the incisive style that has made Bill Moyers's skills as an interviewer legendary, Healing and the Mind is destined to influence how America thinks about sickness and health.

5.0 out of 5 stars Penetrating questions with new solutions

The content of this book is a series of interviews with Moyers and top Professionals in the Medical field. Moyers asks very relevant questions from a skeptical position, the Medical Professional answer is informative as well as fascinating. You can see how the Medical Profession is beginning to change its line of thinking with regards to healing the complete aspect of the Patient, not just the symptoms of the illness or disease.
The human being is a complex mixture of emotions and statistics. In fact the Doctors are realizing they are also members of the human race. All this goes into the mix of a new era of caring being introduced today that benefits both the Doctor and the Patient.
Excellent reading.

I had the cassette set in the late 90s. I thought it was excellent and loaned it to someone. Well you know how that goes...couldn't remember who I loaned it to. Since I couldn't find an audio version I ordered the book. A friend saw my copy and wanted it as well so I gave it to her and ordered another for myself. It's an excellent read and I highly recommend it. In addition to a high recommendation I was very impressed by the quick service by the vendor and the used paperback was in excellent condition.

I found the cassette format difficult at best to enjoy due to the foreign language discussions throughout. I am sure that authenticity was the goal for Moyers, but I would rather have not had my time wasted on not understanding words and would have rather enjoyed the tapes entirely in English with editing done. Have you ever tried to drive and constantly push the fast forward button on the radio/cassette player? The book would have been better for me.

This might be as much an eye opener for the novice as it was for me, a qualified Tai Chi instructor. Highly recommend the read which does a great job of explaining the differences between Eastern and Western medicine and then examples of how beautiful they are when properly blended together!

Bill Moyers is thorough and communicates well for anyone to be able to explain his explorations. It is the quality that made him an impressive success for all these years. As a resident of east Texas near to his birth place in Marshall, I firmly believe that he is "the best" to ever come out of this state when it comes to intelligence and the ability to communicate knowledge.
