Format: Softcover book.
Audience: General practitioners, family physicians, primary care internists, internal medicine subspecialists, and counselors who work with patients who have chronic medical conditions often treated by alternative healers.
Purpose: To familiarize health care providers with complementary medical treatments that their patients may be using or from which their patients might benefit.
Content: This handbook in the Oxford General Practice Series is divided into three sections.

The second contains information on common treatment methods (including acupuncture, homeopathy, and manipulation) and environmental, herbal, mind-body, and nutritional medicine. The third reviews the medical conditions commonly treated by alternative providers, such as back pain, cancer, the chronic fatigue syndrome, the irritable bowel syndrome, migraine, and the premenstrual syndrome.
