Dr. Gladys is internationally known for her pioneering work in alternative medicine. A much honored physician with a gentle approach to disease, 'it is not just killing off a disease, it is seeing the patient as a whole person.' Dr. McGarey believes that the practice of medicine has become a war against disease, a killing machine and rather than building life we are destroying it. The premise of this book is that we must change our focus from killing to living. As we support the living process in a person, life itself brings about the healing that person needs. It is not that the therapeutic modalities are wrong it is what our intention is in using them. Our job as physicians is to work and support the physician within each of us. Then living medicine becomes a dwelling place.
