Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) was a spiritual teacher whose vast contribution to human knowledge was based on his ability to conduct ‘spiritual research’: the investigation, through clairvoyance, of the metaphysical dimensions of existence. He opened new vistas in many practical areas, including architecture, science, agriculture, education and medicine, and today there are thousands of schools, clinics, farms, and many other organizations that are founded directly on his principles. What did he have to say about health and medicine? How can his ideas help us to understand our own health, or to improve our healing practice? This intriguing book is an introductory reader on the subject, including readings on the following subjects, among others: Understanding Man’s True Nature as a Basis for Medical Practice; The Science of Knowing; The Mission of Reverence; the Four Temperaments; The Invisible Human Within Us - The Pathology Underlying Therapy; and Cancer and Mistletoe.
