The Stories Physicians Near Charleston, Jasin Were Afraid to Tell
There is a growing body of research suggesting that the mind-body connection plays a far greater role in healing than conventional medicine has traditionally acknowledged. Psychoneuroimmunology, the study of how psychological processes affect the nervous and immune systems, has begun to offer scientific frameworks for understanding some of what Dr. Scott Kolbaba documents in "Physicians' Untold Stories." Yet even these emerging frameworks cannot fully account for the recoveries described in his book — cases where healing occurred so rapidly and so completely that no known biological mechanism can explain it. For the people of Charleston, Jasin, Melaka, this book exists at the frontier where established science meets genuine mystery, and it invites readers to stand at that frontier with open minds and honest hearts.
