The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Body-Mind Disciplines, a comprehensive
new reference covering over 120 disciplines, has been published by The
Rosen Publishing.
As alternative medicine is gaining recognition in traditional health
care, this timely volume is a welcome and essential resource. The
500-page, one-volume encyclopedia features practical details as well as
historical and theoretical information about body-mind practices within
all of the major disciplines, from the familiar martial arts,
meditation and massage to lesser-known therapies and techniques. While
the approaches of the different practices often vary widely, their
purpose of incorporating the body with the thinking and feeling
processes of the mind is universal -- to enable a person to live a
long, meaningful, and healthy life.
Written by over 125 experts in their respective fields, the
lavishly-illustrated encyclopedia includes boxed insets highlighting
important facts about each discipline, annotated resource lists, and
sources for further reading.
