Inspired Medicine: Sathya Sai Baba’s Influence in Medical Practice
March 5, 2009 | Comments Off
Customer Review: Very Inspiring and sincere. A great Read!
This book is a collection written by many different professionals about their experiences with Sai Baba and his teachings. I found it especially interisting to read about all of the different types of people (different personalities, backgrounds, cultures) who have become followers of Sai Baba. The stories are very sincere, discribing the issues and doubts they have had in their life and how their experiences with Sai Baba have brought meaning and peace into their lives. There are some really great miracle stories in this book.
Customer Review: Publisher’s comment
Eighteen physicians weave a tapestry of love and compassion decribing how Sathya Sai Baba has lit a flame of inspiration in their medical practice. The reader sees how, again and again, both the patient and doctor are transformed. Dr Samuel Sandweis, the well known author of THE HOLYMAN AND THE PSYCHIATRIST wrote the foreword to this book. In it he said, “This is a book of miracle, marvel and medicine that has the power to amaze, delight, teach and transform. This book was compiled and edited by Judy Warner, author of “Transformation of the Heart” and “The Dharmic Challenge”.
Blackwell Complementary and Alternative Medicine: Fast Facts for Medical Practice

More and more medical schools are offering complementary and alternative medicine content in their programs, or elective courses in complementary medicine. There are many exhaustive, comprehensive books on complementary and alternative medicine but what students want are the essential elements that impact them. Those interested, for instance, in Reiki can then research it further.

Customer Review: Lee Lipsenthal, MD
This book serves as a usefull in office guide for quick reference on alternative therapies. I find it useful for myself as well as my patients.
Customer Review: Tremendous resource for busy clinicians
There are a growing number of books on Complementary / Alternative Medicine (CAM) on the shelves, and a reliable resource on CAM therapies is imperative for conventional Western medical doctors as 50% or more of their patients are exploring these potentially helpful / potentially harmful therapies. This book distinguishes itself from the pack by providing the 30,000 foot view of each practice buoyed by bullet points highlighting the essential information a clinician needs to know to advise patients. This is a wonderful resource for busy clinicians who have only a few minutes of spare time to devote to counseling patients on CAM. I would recommend this book to any physician or other health care provider who sees patients; such a book should be provided to medical students and / or residents at the start of their training.
Medical Transcription: Fundamentals & Practice + Health Professions: Medical Transcription (book With Cd-rom)

Customer Review: No instructions to unlock the transcript key on the CD Rom
I think this is an excellent product, but I had a hard time getting the code/instructions to unlock the transcript key on the interactive CD ROM. It has been block by the program developers for student/teacher interaction, but I have been going round-and-round with the publisher, developers, and anyone who I thought could help that I am a independent consumer. Still no instructions on how to unlock the key on the CD ROM. I have been referred to my instructor, (don’t have one), publisher site (not useful), and place of purchase. Have not heard from them yet. However, If you buy this CD Rom be prepared to purchase seperately the transcript key 0130139785.
It just sad now I am stuck with a partially functional interactive CD ROM.
