Lexington Books African American Slave Medicine
Book SynopsisAfrican-American Slave Medicine offers a critical examination of how African-American slaves medical needs were addressed during the years before and surrounding the Civil War. Drawing upon ex-slave interviews conducted during the 1930s and 1940s by the Works Project Administration (WPA), Dr. Herbert C. Covey inventories many of the herbal, plant, and non-plant remedies used by African-American folk practitioners during slavery. He demonstrates how active the slaves were in their own medical care and the important role faith played in the healing process. This book links each referenced plant or herb to modern scientific evidence to determine its actual worth and effects on the patients. Through his study, Dr. Covey unravels many of the complex social relationships found between the African-American slaves, Whites, folk practitioners, and patients. African-American Slave Medicine is a compelling and captivating read that will appeal to scholars of African-American history and those intTrade ReviewCovey's approach is straightforward and impartial. He offers a comprehensive analysis of the literature, judiciously recognizing the work of other historians in this field. At the same time, his contribution stems from an insightful monographic focus....This volume is worthy of a wide readership across disciplines....A precise and substantial work that serves as a functional primer for slavery and medicine in the United States. * Journal of Southern History, August 2008 *This is an excellent treatment of a subject of increasing interest for the lay public and scholars alike. The appendix presents a wealth of information previously undocumented as to source, now confirmed and associated with real people as sources. This book has much to recommend it to a wide interdisciplinary audience. This volume cannot help but enrich the reader. * Herbalgram, August 2009 *Researchers, writers, fans of African American history or those who are fascinated with the history of medicine before, during and after the Civil War will love author Herbert C. Covey’s 2007 title, African American Slave Medicine: Herbal and Non-Herbal Treatments. . . .This straightforward, academic, sometimes 'in-your-face' manuscript holds a treasure chest of information about early medicine, race, and medical treatments used during slavery. . . .Use this book as a supplement text to early American history, American medical history and African American history. It can also be used to explore alternative medicine and healing because the herbs, plants and other items of that day are still in existence today. The book has a reference section at the end that is a researcher’s dream. * The Black History Channel *African American Slave Medicine by Herbert C. Covey is a concise and cogent treatment of the enslavement of African people and herbal pharmacopoeia in the United States. The text makes an important contribution to the expanding field of slavery and medicine, covering the areas of American history, African American Studies, and the history of science and medicine. -- Katherine Bankole, associate professor of history, West Virginia UniversityTable of ContentsChapter 1 Introduction: Medical Care and Slaves Chapter 2 White Medical Care of Slaves Chapter 3 Slave Folk Practitioners Chapter 4 Conjuring and Hoodoo Chapter 5 Slave Herbal Treatments Chapter 6 Slave Non-Herbal Treatments & Materia Medica Chapter 7 Closing Observations

John Wiley & Sons The History of American Homeopathy From Rational Medicine to Holistic Health Care
Book SynopsisTraces the rise of lay practitioners in shaping homeopathy as a healing system and its relationship to other forms of complementary and alternative medicine in an age when conventional biomedicine remains the dominant form.Trade Review"This is an important and outstanding work of scholarship. Neither partisan nor apologetic, it brings the strength of objectivity to homeopathy that has often been lacking in its checkered historiography. Meticulously researched and engagingly written, this book is destined to be the standard work on this colorful and historically rich group of healthcare crusaders for years to come." -- Michael A. Flannery * associate director for Historical Collections, University of Alabama *"Once again, Professor Haller offers an incisive analysis of a major alternative medical system, providing an extraordinarily thorough and nuanced examination of the evolution of homeopathic medicine over the last one hundred years." -- James C. Whorton * author of Nature Cures: The History of Alternative Medicine in America *"John Haller, an eminent historian of alternative medicine, has written a unique and finely woven account on homeopathy and the transformations that have characterized its long history. In this volume, he focuses on its evolving status from a medical practitioner based system of treatment to one now largely embraced by segments of the public in search of alternative therapies. Well-organized and bearing the imprint of a master historian, it is a pleasure to read." -- Pascal James Imperato * founding dean, School of Public Health, State University of New York, Downstate *"Haller takes readers on a historical journey involving American homeopathy as it traversed the political, professional, scientific, and cultural landscape from the late-19th century to the beginning of the 21st century. Experts and novices to American homeopathy will find this book to be comprehensive, objective, informative, and engaging. Recommended." * Choice *"A key achievement of this intriguing book is in capturing the shifting and diverse nature of homeopathy itself, which Haller depicts as having developed from an empirical science to a religious belief system. Haller encompasses the complexity of the development of homeopathy within a cogent narrative." * Bulletin of the History of Medicine *Table of ContentsIntroduction Chapter 1: The Decline of Academic Homeopathy Chapter 2: Esoteric Homeopathy Chapter 3: The Laity Speaks Out Chapter 4: Postwar Trends Chapter 5: Roads Taken and Not Taken Chapter 6: Whither the Future?

Anthroposophic Press Inc Blessed by Illness
Book SynopsisThe prevailing attitude in modern medicine is that illness should not exist. Consequently, millions of research dollars pour each year into medical science and technology in the hope of eradicating various sicknesses and diseases. Patients and doctors alike suffer the terrible consequences of this impossible quest for material perfection. Yet, there is an alternate view-that human beings and human evolution are great enough to include illness as an essential part of existence. In the first part of Blessed by Illness, the author traces the history of our changing concept of healing, from the so-called temple sleep of ancient Egypt-when spiritual science tells us that human beings still had a living connection with the spiritual hierarchies-through the herbal lore of ancient Greece and the healings of Christ, to the rise of modern medicine, based primarily on treating symptoms. The practice of modern medicine focuses merely on removing discernable symptoms and ailments. The author, however, asserts that this does not really heal at all. Rather, true healing considers the whole human being. And, to do this, doctors must learn the language of our natural, healing life forces, which affect not only the body, but also nature and the greater cosmos. From this perspective, illness is actually a gift, a blessing that urges both patient and doctor to work together with our illnesses for the sake of something infinitely greater-true healing. Blessed by Illness is a powerful introduction to alternative methods of healing.

Inner Traditions Bear and Company Hildegard of Bingens Medicine
Book SynopsisHildegard of Bingen, a major twelfth-century mystic and prophet, began having divinely inspired visions at the age of six. These visions continued throughout her life and were the source of highly honored information on healing through a multidimensional approach to the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Widely accepted by physicians and religious healers of her time, Hildegard’s work was lost over the centuries, and has only recently been reborn through the work of the authors of this book. Hildegard of Bingen’s Medicine is a groundbreaking contribution to medicine and healing. It contains translations of Hildegard text which reflect the high point of medieval, alchemical, and healing science. In addition, these translations are commented upon by authors who have worked clinically with Hildegard’s wisdom for thirty years. Many will find this book to contain profound, long lost spiritual teachings. Hildegard’s deep understanding of nature--trees, herbs, an
