In this book, entitled The Missing Mind of Hippocrates, I have addressed spiritual, philosophical, mystical and scientific fact. To demonstrate that we are spending our time in vain in seeking ways to extend our survival in leading research on invisible molecules and showing invalid scenario. The problem is elsewhere. I would not like to address these issues. If generally we can consider ourselves as the sole body, the association of knowledge about the beliefs would help doctors to prevent and cure many diseases without great efforts. Some characters as spiritual,administrative, political, sociocultural and medical must be involved in this matter. Let us forget our religious, philosophical, cultural or ethnic affiliation. Learn the truth, compassion, meditate,transcend and we will influence our survival and our responsibility. Human beings have lost their viability to 1 and 12%? Here, you can see the average of our wellness through the connection of the seven dimensions of wellness (physical, emotional,intellectual, environmental, social, spiritual and transcendental) to transpersonal tips (awareness, pity, truth, motivation, wisdom, personal transformation). The world is working to reduce the mortality rate and increase survival and life expectancy,without taking this aspect into account. We are at risk of being all of us under the average age of maturity, from the ever life, eternity, 2000 years, 1000 years, 500 years, 250 years, 150years, and 100 years to 50 years of age as a life expectancy at this century. There was an original gene (GENE-U), mutated to molecular gene (master of life expectancy). Each century, molecular genes undergo multiple transformations in its mystical correlation to GENE-U. Life expectancy will fall to 30, 20, 10, 5 and 0 and human life of our race will disappear to leave life to new species of human-being, probably with a new GENE-U. At this point we can claim the end of the world, not gratuitously to prophesise through different phenomena. This is a paganism which put the world a complicated situation. Finally I conclude that the end of the world is when the expectancy life reaches the biological immature age, however humans become unable to reproduce and take care of others. A child can live only for determined times and pass on. What will remain? What about Homo erectus, Homo habilis, Homo sapiens? Why not HOMO XXXX? In this book, there is truth and controversies about transpersonal studies applied in clinical trials, these were conducted using statistical methodology. Meditation is a master our well-being.

This book is available as open access through the Knowledge Unlatched programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. We need to talk about Hippocrates. Current scholarship attributes none of the works of the 'Hippocratic corpus' to him, and the ancient biographical traditions of his life are not only late, but also written for their own promotional purposes. Yet Hippocrates features powerfully in our assumptions about ancient medicine, and our beliefs about what medicine – and the physician himself – should be. In both orthodox and alternative medicine, he continues to be a model to be emulated. This book will challenge widespread assumptions about Hippocrates (and, in the process, about the history of medicine in ancient Greece and beyond) and will also explore the creation of modern myths about the ancient world. Why do we continue to use Hippocrates, and how are new myths constructed around his name? How do news stories and the internet contribute to our picture of him? And what can this tell us about wider popular engagements with the classical world today, in memes, 'quotes' and online?

"Aclear-sighted, heartfelt, and humane story of the needless tests and treatments that cripple healthcare....as a guide to good medicine, it may help us get back to the essence of what good doctors do: be with patients in healing." —Samuel Shem, M.D., author of The House of God and The Spirit of the Place In Hippocrates’ Shadow, Dr. David H. Newman upends our understanding of the doctor-patient relationship and offers a new paradigm of honesty and communication. He sees a disregard for the healing power of the bond that originated with Hippocrates, and, ultimately, a disconnect between doctors and their oath to"do no harm." Exposing the patterns of secrecy and habit in modern medicine’s carefully protected subculture, Dr. Newman argues that doctors and patients cling to tradition and yield to demands for pills or tests. Citing fascinating studies that show why antibiotics for sore throats are almost always unnecessary; how cough syrup is rarely more effective than a sugar pill; and why CPR is violent, invasive—and almost always futile, this thought-provoking book cuts to the heart of what really works, and what doesn’t, in medicine.
