PREFACE The traditional Tibetan medical system is composed of vast indigenous healing knowledge and practices, and offers holistic treatment aimed at regulating and maintaining the balance of the functional principles of the mind and body. These principles are related to the characteristics of the elemental cosmic energies and as such, it is understood that any disturbances in the environment can directly or indirectly affect the health of a person. The long history it enjoys, the sound foundations on which it is established, and the increasing popularity it has earned are clear indications that Tibetan Medicine is relevant and important even in the modern world. This valuable medical treasure is found in the highly esteemed Gyueshhi (Four Tantras), a complete and profound multi-faceted text, encompassing the unabridged theories and practices of Tibetan Medicine. It is the creation of eminent ancient scholars of Tibet and was achieved by practice, invention, and development through their intellectual wisdom. Based on practical experience with the ancient medical knowledge of the Tibetans, which relates to their unique culture, customs, and environment, the legendary Yuthok Yonten Gonpo, Father of Tibetan Medicine, composed the Gyueshhi by incorporating the essence of the then known Asian medical systems, such as Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Greek medicine, making it one of the oldest, most comprehensive and reliable medical systems in the world. Tibetan Medicine offers a complete system of diagnostic and treatment methods based on an enormous herbal pharmacopoeia produced by complex and systematic manufacturing processes. The essential principles of Tibetan Medicine are harmony and balance, which lends it an inspiring relevance to the health problems of the modern world, including the prevention of various psychosomatic disorders. The teaching and practice of Tibetan Medicine is mainly concentrated in Tibet; however, the entire belt of the Himalayan region, India, Mongolia, Kalmykia, and Buryatia, as well as a few Western countries also share in the practice of Tibetan Medicine. Due to the growing popularity of Tibetan Medicine worldwide, the increasing number of people interested in this discipline, and in line with the enduring wishes of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the time has come to pass on this precise knowledge and instruction. Our goal is to share Tibetan medical knowledge and its practices by making it available particularly to non-Tibetans, and for it to be widely used by English-speaking medical practitioners, scientists, and researchers who have a commitment to providing quality health care to all human beings. Hence, overcoming the narrow attitudes of seclusion and secrecy, Men-Tsee-Khang started a translation project to make an authentic interpretation of the original Tibetan medical knowledge available to interested people everywhere, so that new thoughts and methods can be introduced into daily practice and provide greater benefits for the peoples of the world.

A fascinating and shocking historical exposé, The Malaria Project is the story of America's secret mission to combat malaria during World War II—a campaign modeled after a German project which tested experimental drugs on men gone mad from syphilis. American war planners, foreseeing the tactical need for a malaria drug, recreated the German model, then grew it tenfold. Quickly becoming the biggest and most important medical initiative of the war, the project tasked dozens of the country’s top research scientists and university labs to find a treatment to remedy half a million U.S. troops incapacitated by malaria. Spearheading the new U.S. effort was Dr. Lowell T. Coggeshall, the son of a poor Indiana farmer whose persistent drive and curiosity led him to become one of the most innovative thinkers in solving the malaria problem. He recruited private corporations, such as today's Squibb and Eli Lilly, and the nation’s best chemists out of Harvard and Johns Hopkins to make novel compounds that skilled technicians tested on birds. Giants in the field of clinical research, including the future NIH director James Shannon, then tested the drugs on mental health patients and convicted criminals—including infamous murderer Nathan Leopold. By 1943, a dozen strains of malaria brought home in the veins of sick soldiers were injected into these human guinea pigs for drug studies. After hundreds of trials and many deaths, they found their “magic bullet,” but not in a U.S. laboratory. America 's best weapon against malaria, still used today, was captured in battle from the Nazis. Called chloroquine, it went on to save more lives than any other drug in history. Karen M. Masterson, a journalist turned malaria researcher, uncovers the complete story behind this dark tale of science, medicine and war. Illuminating, riveting and surprising, The Malaria Project captures the ethical perils of seeking treatments for disease while ignoring the human condition.

What would Christianity be like without the soul? While most people would expect the Christian bible to reveal a highly traditional opposition of matter and spirit, the spirit forces of the Old and New Testaments are often surprisingly physical, dynamic, and practical, a matter of energy as much as ethics. The Secret History of the Soul examines the forgotten or suppressed models of body, soul, and human consciousness found in the literature, philosophy and scripture of the ancient and classical worlds. It shows how the spirit forces of Homer, Plato, Aristotle, and the Old and New Testaments tended to be quantities not entities, and to be closely bound up with the dynamic physical flux of the human body, rather than cleanly abstracted in some absolute immaterial realm. Forces such as menos and thymos, nephesh, pneuma and dynamis not only blurred the line between body and soul, but were potent and transferable, being used, in New Testament culture, to effect magical cures or bestow magical power. Related to this surprising lack of body-soul dualism is a lack of dualistic afterlife in either Homer or Hebrew scripture, where Hades and Sheol are the sole post-mortem destinations. The Secret History of the Soul restores the living strangeness of a spirit world filled with potent energy and practical magic, in cultures which had not yet glimpsed the abstracted soul of later Christianity.
