Editorial Review :

"If you love your stricken one, this is your Bible." said Denzel Koh of Brisbane, Australia after he healed his daughter's cancer using the information in a previous edition of this book.

A cancer diagnosis always causes fear. All of us have seen relatives and friends destroyed by conventional cancer treatment. Now, thanks to books like this one and the Internet, you can quickly learn what you need to know. You can heal the cancer using natural, non-toxic substances that work. What you need is a guide to cut through the overwhelming jungle of information.

This book provides that guide. The information in it has been refined over eight years using feedback from real cancer survivors about what worked for them. The author has counseled hundreds of cancer patients by phone and e-mail in 58 countries. At least 1,500 of them have recovered using his information.

He is not a medical professional. He is a "reporter" furnishing you with information that consists of "what he would do if he were you or your loved one." His coaching is available to you after you have read this book, if you need it.

Bill Henderson has published 105 free newsletters on natural cancer treatment to 8,000 subscribers all over the world, starting in 1999. The information in these newsletters has now been incorporated into this, his third book. The book is up-to-date, specific and accurate.

Bill informs you of over 140 web sites and dozens of other books and newsletters you can use to expand your knowledge of natural cancer treatment.

The self-treatments he recommends are harmless enough that you can start them immediately, without more research, if you like. They do not interfere with conventional cancer therapy, if that is your choice. In fact, they offset most of the side effects of that treatment.

"Cancer is not a disease," says Bill. "It is a reaction to what your body has experienced. Reverse that cause and the cancer goes away. Continue what you did to reverse it and it stays away."

Bill explains that there are four common characteristics of all cancers. These have been known since the 1920's:

1. Low oxygen uptake by the cells.

2. A weak immune system.

3. Toxins -- usually caused by diet.

4. Acidity -- again, usually caused by diet.

Bill Henderson's recommended regimen tracks with the knowledge for which Otto Warburg, a famous German doctor and researcher, won a Nobel Prize in 1931. He described the cancer cell and stressed the need to reverse the above four characteristics of the cancer in order to heal it.

Bill's mission to help cancer patients heal started with his experience with his former wife, Marjorie. Her ovarian cancer was treated with conventional cancer treatment from 1990 to 1994, when she died. Bill is convinced that the treatment killed her. He wants to help as many people as possible avoid her fate.

Disappointment...

The book arrived in good time, but unfortunately it was not the book I had ordered, which was disappointing since I wanted to send it to a friend who is looking for this kind of cancer treatment. It wasn't totally the fault of the seller--the cover was right, but inside the cover was a completely different (and useless to me) book. The seller asked me to return the book (which I did) so they could see what I was talking about, but I never heard from them again...

Helped me for a lifestyle change after cancer

I had stage 3 colon cancer at age 32. Needless to say I was a little frightened. I had surgery and chemo and a friend's parents sent me this book just as I started chemo. I was young and strong so I continued the chemo, but I started all of Bill's recommended 'life changes' while still doing chemo. After chemo (and cancer free-ness) I've kept up with everything on a preventative level and I'm 2+ yrs out and still cancer free (knocks wood). I really liked this book- it's written so anyone can understand how and why cancer occurs and how they can live a healthier lifestyle to counter act it. I am really happy I was given it and I plan to continue the things I've learned in it forever. We as Americans consume such processed junk and it's time we all take better care of our bodies.

written in layman terms and very, very useful

This is one of two books that I am reading on nutrition as a way to beat cancer. I love the book as it is written in layman terms and not filled with the technical jargons. This book is a must read and have a a reference library for two reasons: 1) if you have a love one who is diagnosed with cancer and is going to have TR or chemo, I strongly recommend this book as a way to support their immune and body through the treatment; otherwise, complications happen, like pneumonia, which many supplements will help to boost the immune system; 2) teaches you that even if you are healthy, you need to change your diet NOW.

I found the book very supportive and informing us that cancer can be treated, and I believe that as we are facing a cancer situation in the family, and despite the negativity of the doctors on the stage IV glioma, we have seen such improvements and that this affected person, it taking the treatment so much better than before.

it is a must read book and you will learn so much more on how your body can support you that you ever thought. We have learnt not to give our power away to the doctors and have taken it back by focusing on the nutrition to heal; the treatment is just to 'debulk' the cancer cells, and we are using the nutrition to allow the body to fight the cancer cells. Love this book and will be buying more copies for family and friends. A little pricy, but it is worth it.

Rating :

disappointing

The title of this book looked so promising. However, it reads like the typical ad for homeopathic supplements and presents a bleak outlook for those who have already had traditional medical treatment.

Editorial Review :

Balanced coverage of the entire life span is just one thing that distinguishes HUMAN DEVELOPMENT: A LIFE-SPAN VIEW, 5TH EDITION. With its comprehensive, succinct, and applied coverage, the book has proven its ability to capture users' interest while introducing them to the issues, forces, and outcomes that make us who we are. Robert V. Kail's expertise in childhood and adolescence, combined with John C. Cavanaugh's extensive research in gerontology, result in a book with a rich description of all life-span stages and important topics. A modified chronological approach traces development in sequential order from conception through late life, while also dedicating several chapters to key topical issues. This organization also allows the book to be relatively briefer than other texts—a benefit given the enormous amount of information covered in the course. The authors provide theoretical and empirical foundations that enable users to become educated, critical interpreters of developmental information. A blend of basic and applied research, as well as coverage of controversial topics and emergent trends, demonstrates connections between the laboratory and life. A complete media and supplement package—including videos, the PowerLecture™ lecture presentation tool, a user visual summary booklet, and eAudio downloads—supports users.

A comprehensive, practical, and authoritative guide to the method developed by Iyengar. 100 key postures with detailed step-by-step instructions and photographs. This is our most recently published yoga book and has quickly become a backlist bestseller.

Customer Review :

For those who like precision

I love this yoga book. It has detailed illustrations and very detailed descriptions for all of the more common yoga poses. The level of detail may be a bit much for the beginning student but it really does describe very precisely and accurately how to achieve perfect form. It is definitely helpful to have a manual such as this to supplement exercise videos which seldom provide detailed enough form cues. As a result of reminding myself of the proper form cues, I have definitely improved my mastery of the poses.

Rating :

Good, but could have been better

This is a decent, portable substitute for Iyengar's "Yoga, the Path to Holistic Health," which is a huge hardback that is impossible to carry with you and much more expensive. It doesn't have the latter's wonderful 360-degree views of the "classic" postures, but it does have the written "check lists" for performing each posture correctly. Accepting that constraint, my only complaint is the authors' selection of "classic" postures. They devoted several pages to "sequences" that could have been used for other postures that were omitted. Still, a worthwhile purchase.

The best yoga book ever

This amazing book will help you set up your own daily Iyengar practice. The pictures are clear, explained well, detailed and very centering. If you want a rapid, active practice, Iyengar is not for you. If you want a rooted, engaged and mind and heart-opening practice, buy the book and do the poses. It is very structured and you progress at your own rate.

The back of the book has a guided practice for you to follow in sequential stages. I love it.

Rating :

Concise, practical yoga book, excellent seller

Practical book, just go to the lesson plans in the back, look at the pictures and do yoga. The book itself recommends taking formal yoga classes over just depending on this book for your practice. But for cheap beginners, like myself, just following the lesson plans in the book gives great benefit such that the purse strings loosen for a formal yoga class.

Bought it used from amazon. Great condition, arrived on time. Have never been disappointed at Amazon.

Good service. Love this book. I moved to an area that has no Iyengar teachers, and this is the next best thing. Someone took my other book, and had to replace it.

Great Resource Book

Learned a lot. So much information was given I had to review several sections more than once. (That was a good thing!) I wanted to deepen my understanding of nutrition. This book has helped me in this endeavor. I will definitely re-read it in another month or so.

Rating :

Great quality product.

I like this particular oil because it works out for those things that you don't want the coconut taste, ie biscuits and breads. The extra virgin is great and has the coconut taste.

EXCELLENT BOOK

This book is the best thing to come along since Adele Davis' classics on nutrition and supplementation which were written back in the 1960's and are now very outdated----she was certainly a pioneer in the field and I, personally, will be forever grateful to her for getting me on the right track toward raising two very healthy children.
Back to Dr. Blaylock: this book as well as his newsletter and other books are well written, easy to read for the layman, thoroughly researched and his suggestions WORK!
I went through a period of about 1 year where I was growing debilitated and weak and thought I was dying. Without going into boring details, I can say that through Dr.Blaylock's suggestions and guidelines I was able to figure out what my personal family physician could not concerning what was ailing me. By applying what Dr. Blaylock and a few other (too few, unfortunately) "healers" like him suggested using nutrition and supplements, I am now completely well.
With the health care situation in the U.S. getting worse all the time and nationalized medicine looming on the horizon, I would say to everyone: Get well. Stay well. And do so by using the guidelines shown in this book and anything else Dr. Blaylock recommends.
Dr.Blaylock is a board certifide MD....not some quack with a website and a book deal. He does not have an agenda other than to help people to get well. Having never met him but from reading his work, I can say I highly respect him and feel that he is a man of integrity.

Indepth study

This book is excellent with lots of information. Because I am a novice to this type of book, I was concerned that it would be to hard for me to understand but I needn't have worried. Dr Blaylock makes the subject matter interesting and easy to understand. It is an ideal book for a beginner interested in finding out the basic as well as advanced information on health and nutrition.

If you are what you eat, and if you eat trash...

This book is great, holds a wealth of explained,detailed information.
Dr Blaylock is a great gift to those of us who look to get well, instead of symptom maintenance/pharma enrichment.
It never fails me people will spend more on their car payments than on quality foods..drive a huge SUV and eat at Mc someplace. Then wonder why when they hit 50 they start 'cemetary prep'.
Good nutrition IS the best medicine

Thanks Dr Blaylock !

You would think with it being a dictionary that it would have how to correctly pronounce the words, but it doesn't. Other than that it is okay.
