In Common Sense Medicine, Dr. Robert A. Nash refocuses the idea of disease care to health care, and emphasizes the term 'Energy Medicine' as the banner that the medical knowledge of the new millennium will garner. With new medical knowledge comes a new approach, rethinking the causes for disease and the ways in which we now treat them. Dr. Nash's book offers a first hand account of his own experience with alternative treatments, and his broad scope of what is medicine is both reassuring and enlightening.
