Health of the people is the most important indicator of the
development of a nation. Health is a state of complete physical,
mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease
or infirmity (as defined by WHO). The state of health of an
individual or population depends upon complex interaction of the
physical, biological, political and social domains. The environment
affects the human health in a big way. People tend to be most
susceptible to illness when physically or mentally stressed.
Stress, energy and immunity form a closely knit network. Through
his experimental findings, the author has brought out this
intricate concept of interdependence of biotic (living) and abiotic
(non-living) factors in an ecosystem, resulting in an impact on
human health, in an explicitly marvelous manner. As a result, a new
word "Biogeogens" has been coined, "bio" for living (biotic) ,
"geo" for non-living (abiotic/geographical/climatic/environment)
and "gens" for the interactive proceeds of the two. The content
included herein is directly concerned with the societal health and
gives a clue to many socio-psycho health problems presently not
handled with care. It also defines a multidimensional approach for
dealing with many psychosomatic and health problems.
