The comforting assurance of "The Healer's Art" is that a loving Christ can (and may) heal us physically, but where for whatever reason physical healing is not possible, the Lord can and will rescue faithful souls from heartache, fear, and discouragement.

Spoken language is the most important diagnostic and therapeutic tool in medicine, and, according to Dr. Cassell, "we must be as precise with it as a surgeon with a scalpel." In these two volumes, he analyzes doctor-patient communication and shows how doctors can use language for the maximum benefit of their patients. Throughout, Dr. Cassell stresses that patients are complex, changing, psychological, social and physical beings whose illnesses are well represented by their own communication. He proposes that both listening and speaking are arts that can be learned best when they are based on the way that spoken language functions in medicine. Accordingly, Volume I focuses on the workings of spoken language in the clinical setting. It analyzes such important aspects of speech as paralanguage (non-word phenomenon like pause, pitch, and speech rate), how patients describe themselves and their illnesses, the logic of conversation, and the levels of meanings of words. Volume II is a practical, detailed, how to guide that demonstrates the process of history taking and how the doctor can learn the most from the information that the patient has to offer. His arguments are amply illustrated in both volumes by transcripts of real interactions between patients and their doctors.

Artist Kalman Aron has eclipsed evil and delved into visual truth and beauty. A Holocaust survivor, his experiences in concentration camps had a lifetime effect on his painting and his capability to convey the heart of his subjects. After the war, Aron's skills were acknowledged with a full scholarship to the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna and he received a master's in fine arts degree. At the end of 1949, he immigrated to America and settled in Los Angeles, a prolific and accomplished artist. Aron's media are varied and manifold - oils, pastels, acrylics, pen and ink, and watercolours - and his approach moves through a new arena of artistic expression with time. From his drawings of children, portraits, Los Angeles landscapes, and abstract drawings, among numerous other subjects, Aron has discovered healing through his art. His example is a symbol of hope and restoration. This beautifully illustrated book is a visual testament to that hope. AUTHOR: Susan Beilby Magee, graduate of Pomona College and Wharton and formerly a White House Fellow, is a certified hypnotherapist with 25 years experience in the healing arts. ILLUSTRATIONS: 200 colour & 50 b/w illustrations
