The Psychology of Healing

Shiatsu or therapeutic touch, aromatherapy or

homoepathy? Anybody seeking help beyond orthodox

medical treatment has a bewildering variety of

complementary techniques and alternative therapies

to choose from.

In The Psychology of Healing, Murry Hope surveys the

healing arts from the earliest days of ancient Egypt

to the latest discoveries in the fields of science and

complementary medicine.

In examining the majority of healing methods in use

today, she explores their history, how they work,

who would be most likely to benefit and

the psychology underlying each one.

Well researched, informal and eminently

readable, this is a book that lay reader and

professional alike will find indispensable.
