Paul Jaerschky was a participant in the first doctor’s course by Rudolf Steiner in 1920, and thus one of the pioneers of anthroposophic medical practice. Essays and case histories in anthroposophic medicine focus upon biography as a catalyst for illness and healing. Reading this book, as a young medical student, Dr. Gerald Karnow “learned to appreciate that there is an innate capacity to heal in each human being and that this capacity can be addressed and enhanced by other than merely synthetic and technological means.”
