Using the Bowen Technique to Address Complex and Common Conditions is a book to read and keep handy on your shelf, to help understand why we do what we do. Think of it as an up-to-date encyclopedia of structural and organic health, all from a Bowen perspective. I believe that musing on principles and connections such as these is the stuff upon which new and more effective treatments and procedures are founded. -- Gene Dobkin, Director, usbowen.com, author of A Bowen Home Companion, vol's I and II
