"Larry Dossey's words of wisdom have inspired and challenged me for years. Healing beyond the Body is a sumptuous buffet of Dr. Dossey's most charming, healing, and delectable insights. There's something here for everyone—it's chicken soup for the body and soul, served with insight, intellectual rigor, and great compassion."—Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom, and The Wisdom of Menopause

"Dr. Larry Dossey reveals the extraordinary range and depth of his pioneering and enchanting vision. He is this generation's Lewis Thomas."—Dean Ornish, M.D., author of Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease and Love & Survival
