A presentation of fifteen case studies to explain the approach of integrative psychosomatics from a leader in the field. Mental and physical health are interconnected but remain within separate disciplines. This method allows a better understanding of the relationship between mind and body, the disorders which can arise, and how best to treat them.

Amongst the fascinating and compelling questions that this book raises are: how can we understand an illness if we only analyse the psyche? How can we understand patients if we only take account of their biological data? Are hypochondriac problems generated by the mind, as some doctors believe, or are the problems in fact more complex?
