ABSTRACT
Although this book is concerned with the study of Health and with the experimental investigation of the technique required for its cultivation—a procedure distinct in principle, aim and methods from the study and practice of Sickness—it would be incomplete without reference to results of a clinical nature that have emerged from the use of these new methods. Periodic health overhaul of member-families has yielded ascertainable facts in the clinical field about which a definite statement can be made. When “dealing with such material we pass into the realm of pathology, so that it becomes necessary to set aside for the moment the functional considerations already put forward, and to consider the contents of the first two sections of this chapter mainly from the point of view of traditional Medicine.
