Lido Beach, NY, Author Publishes New Book

"East Meets West: A Contrast in Medicine", a new book by Linda Appelbaum Schneider, RN, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

"East Meets West: A Contrast in Medicine" discusses the benefits of Eastern medicine and non-traditional treatments based on Linda Appelbaum Schneider's personal experience and research.

In recent years, Eastern medicine has become more mainstream.

While others remain skeptical, Ms. Schneider asserts that it "is time to meld both philosophies of medicine-Eastern and Western-to help us live healthier lives." She gives us examples of this through her personal accounts of patients who prolonged their lives and maintained a healthy lifestyle by utilizing the Eastern principles of healing, which not only address the physical body, but also the spiritual self and surroundings.
