This book is used for a class that is required for a program I am in. The class is supposedly an "open-minded" class. But it is all about this book and it only focuses on Western thought. I had high expectations for this class and this book since I have been studying and practicing wellness for over 10 years. My expectations have been let down and this book or the class is not "open-minded" at all. Also, it hints at religion being part of the program, not impressed.If you don't know anything about wellness, it could be a good start if you want to include religion and all. And I recommend and Anatomy & Physiology course as a prerequisite. There are many in my class who don't understand some of the principles based on the understanding of Anatomy & Physiology.

This must be for the bible belt, it would have you believe that prayer can heal you and the only proper sexual relation is a monogamous one after marriage
