In this ground-breaking collection of essays, medical scientists in a number of fields join with practitioners from the fields of non-Western medicine -- the Asklepieia, body/soul therapies, and dreamwork -- to explore the intimate relationship between imagination and physical health. By looking at medical science, these scholars, physicians, and healers offer their vision of what medical treatment and psychotherapy might look like in the future. Artists and architects with expertise in health care also describe and present new designs for healing centres that bring together current scientific knowledge and age-old healing practices. This collection will be of great interest to those looking to the future in the fields of therapy, medicine, and the healing professions.
