Chiropractic Peace marks the beginning of the end for infighting between mixers (broad-scope) and straights (focused-scope). The three refreshing essays by Drs. Reed Phillips, Ashley Cleveland, and Gerry Clum introduce chiropractic leaders, students, faculty and practitioners to a new, less contentious, dialogue on the political, sociological, philosophical and historical issues of our profession. After years of polemical argumentation, reading Chiropractic Peace is like getting a new pair of glasses or a much-needed spinal adjustment. Uplifting relief Instead of seeking peace by trying to hammer out compromises, which many do not find successful in the end, the three writers utilize the concept of pluralism to construct a "big tent" which will accommodate all ethical chiropractors who adhere to basic chiropractic principles.
The three contributors bring a much-needed respectful tone to the discourse. And in an important turn for the profession, each writer acknowledges that all of the camps-focused-scope, middle-scope, and broad-scope-are committed to ethical and skillful practice.

This unique fully illustrated colour book is set to raise the bar in professional manipulation and how the spine and rib cage articulate synchronously and synergetically to compliment the wide range of movement's humans take for granted. Imagine a set of swift, precision, silent and efficient genuine manipulative techniques that when applied, the patient is unaware that they have just been manipulated and this includes the neck and sacroiliac joints. In practice, the safety factor during an all-inclusive manipulative treatment is raised to an unprecedented level. To be able to accomplish this, the old theories on spinal mechanics, discovered at the turn of the last century, had to be put to one side. This book introduces a new set of theories on spinal mechanics that can be demonstrated to work singularly, synchronously and synergetically, based on the extensive and pioneering research and experimentation of Osteopath J.R.Bayliss. From these theories it was possible to theorise how joints subluxate, and the book goes into much detail about how this happens. It was only from this new beginning that the new type of manipulation protocol was discovered. It is called 'Passive Prone Technique' because all the patient has to do during the procedure is adopt a relaxed, prone and passive position. The therapist can actually feel the joint and not just the soft tissue effortlessly sliding back into place under their fingers. Because PPT's have such a low trauma footprint on the body it is possible to manipulate both of the sacroiliac joints and every one of the lumbar, thoracic and neck joints in one treatment session. This offers the potential of getting the spine very straight, hence the nickname 'true alignment'. Not only this, Edition 2 of this book has been expanded to cover how the rib cage and shoulder girdle integrates with the spine during breathing, extension, flexion, rotation and side-bending. There are four extra chapters covering their physiology and how the individual joints subluxate together with, the types of subluxation patterns that develop and cause the commonly identifiable misshapenness of the human torso and restrictions to the breathing mechanism. Co-operative Supine Technique and Co-operative Prone Techniques are introduced and are illustrated to show how the rib cage and shoulder girdle can be effectively manipulated to take the mobility and the alignment of body's symmetry to a new level.

Today's chiropractors are practicing in a very difficult and competitive environment. They need to seriously plan and execute their practices the same way that successful business enterprises do. Many fail, not because they are poor clinicians, but simply because their practices are not founded on a personal vision and based on a realistic action plan. Strategic Planning for the Chiropractic Practice takes the reader from the development of a vision statement, through a mission statement, goals, objectives and operational plans and a specific execution plan.

In presenting this work, it is the attempt of the author to advance the relation of subluxations to disease, also the chiropractic interpretation for the occurrence of many diseases. Appreciating the fact that only rational chiropractic can stand the light of scientific investigation, it is the constant endeavor, in all diseases herein considered, to present the adjusting point, the nerve pathway from the spine to the organ, the physiological action of the adjustment and the chiropractic prognosis. The addition of the medical prognosis is to enable the chiropractic practitioner to draw into play the element of comparison which has as its object the revelation of the efficacy of the practice of chiropractic over the practice of medicine in nearly all instances.

To me Steven J. Pollack, D.C. represents the vision and integrity, which form the foundation of Chiropractic health care. Over the past 20 years I've enjoyed the opportunity to be Steve's colleague and more importantly, his friend. Together we have endured and adapted to the dramatic changes to the "business" of health care. Despite these erratic changes "Dr. Steve" has never once lost his focus on the science, art, and philosophy of Chiropractic. One minute around him and you will know he has never been "in" Chiropractic. Chiropractic lives in him!
--Paul Basile, D.C.
