Book excerpt: Integrative medicine prioritizes prevention and non-invasive treatments as the first line of defense, and blends the best-evidenced solutions from both mainstream and alternative healing modalities. Argues that conventional medicine's obsession with profitably treating symptoms drives up the cost of health care and that single-payer national health insurance is a necessary but insufficient solution. A genuine return to healing requires that we combine regulatory reform with support for a transformed medical paradigm. From publisher description.
