Book Description
President of the Canadian Association of Herbal Practitioners and bestselling author of Dr. Terry Willard’s Encyclopedia of Herbs, Dr. Willard offers insight into why more and more people are becoming afflicted by auto-immune diseases and how to react. Vibrational medicine is a newly emerging model of medicine that takes into account the body’s electromagnetic, or life-force energies, which are also known in other cultures as chi, ki, or prana. While the recognition of such an energy force is not new, this book is the first to recognize vibrational medicine as an essential component in the treatment and recovery of auto-immune disorders. Using case studies from his twenty-five-year practice, Dr. Willard outlines the common patterns that lead to auto-immune syndromes like as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, and allergies and explores the complex connection between the mind and the body. He also outlines how people can recover from auto-immune diseases using a combination of vibrational medicine, herbal remedies and mind-body therapies. Body Harmony How to Resist and Recover from Auto Immune Diseases offers long-term solutions for all those suffering from auto-immune-related illnesses. This book is the perfect resource for anyone who is interested in healing their immune systems and achieving optimum health. (August 2003)

Book Description
Visit Armand Marie Leroi on the web: http://armandleroi.com/index.html Stepping effortlessly from myth to cutting-edge science, Mutants gives a brilliant narrative account of our genetic code and the captivating people whose bodies have revealed it—a French convent girl who found herself changing sex at puberty; children who, echoing Homer’s Cyclops, are born with a single eye in the middle of their foreheads; a village of long-lived Croatian dwarves; one family, whose bodies were entirely covered with hair, was kept at the Burmese royal court for four generations and gave Darwin one of his keenest insights into heredity. This elegant, humane, and engaging book “captures what we know of the development of what makes us human” (Nature).

Book Description
"God's eternal plan for us involves our body. We can't write off our physical life as spiritually irrelevant." — Sam Allberry There's a danger in focusing too much on the body. There's also a danger in not valuing it enough. In fact, the Bible has lots to say about the body. With the coming of Jesus, "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us"—flesh that was pierced and crushed for the sins of the world. In What God Has to Say about Our Bodies, Sam Allberry explains that all of us are fearfully and wonderfully made, and should regard our physicality as a gift. He offers biblical guidance for living, including understanding gender, sexuality, and identity; dealing with aging, illness, and death; and considering the physical future hope that we have in Christ. In this powerfully written book, you'll gain a new understanding for the immeasurable value of our bodies and God's ultimate plan to redeem them.
