In the United States alone, more than 38 percent of people use
Alternative Medicine to treat and prevent medical issues and more
than 50 percent of people have tried Alternative Medicine at some
point in their life. But because some people don't feel their
doctors see those methods as legitimate, patients often turn to
unreliable sources such as the internet, celebrities, etc. for
guidance. With so much misinformation out there, how does anyone
know which advice to follow and what actually works? In this book,
Dr. Mel Borins answers these questions using the latest scientific
research and double-blind studies to educate patients and
physicians alike on which alternative treatments work, which don't,
and why. And more importantly, it teaches them how to safely use
these alternative treatments, as a reputable source of information
to supplement their conventional medicine treatments. Written in
clear, accessible language for the layperson while providing
citations to full studies for the medical professional, the book
covers traditional healing and herbal remedies, physical therapies,
psychological therapies, and natural health products--making it
perfect for alternative medicine skeptics looking for hard
evidence, doctors of conventional medicine seeking to understand
why alternative therapies work, and for those open to alternative
medicine but who want to understand the benefits and dangers; these
include America's 78 million Baby Boomers who purchase 77 percent
of all prescriptions drugs and are seeking ways to treat their
health issues without causing more of them.

Four years in medical school are not only demanding and competitive in a strictly academic sense, but they may bring students face-to-face with perfectionism, anxiety, obsessions, power plays, difficult patients, ethical dilemmas, identity crises, sleep deprivation, financial strain, and--perhaps for the first time in their lives--confrontations with disease, suffering, and death. The Mindful Medical Student will broaden readers' perspectives and cultivate their ability to respond to the extreme emotional, psychological, and spiritual challenges posed by medical school and, eventually, a medical career. Jeremy Spiegel, MD, tackled these issues head on, prevailed, and became a first-rate psychiatrist. Now, in a vital book, he shares what he has learned.
