Reviews

The purpose of this book is to introduce doctors with an integrative approach based on theory and clinical experience emanating from two fields: western medicine and body psychotherapy. It introduces psychotherapy into medical practice in a very practical way and provides tools and principles for understanding and managing the doctor-patient encounter. This is an impressive, innovative and inspiring book and I highly recommend it to physicians in order to feel better as humans and doctors and be better doctors for their patients. Hava Tabenkin, MD, professor emerita, family medicine, School of Medicine Ben Gurion University, Israel. This is a narrative-based medical guide book, which interlaces encounter stories with medical and psychotherapy knowledge. Physical, psychological, social, and spiritual health chapters are interwoven in a complex artistic, yet practical, design to form new white coats. These suits suit us, evolving human healers. Iris Shoshani Helvitz, MD, Family Medicine and Palliative Care, Rappaport Faculty of Medicine, Technion, Israel Groundbreaking book that will change the way you think of sickness and health and of the doctor-patient relationship. Written fluently, theoretical and practical, giving doctors tools for better understanding of their patients as well as themselves, deepening and expanding theoretical and clinical knowledge of the body-mind relationship in a feasible way. This book will improve not only medical care but also make doctors feel better. Zohar Shani Gershon, MD, Family Medicine, Bar Ilan University, Israel
