Wunder wirken Wunder

A healing look at the wondrous world of healing arts. Science has banished magic from medicine, but not from us humans. What power do positive and negative thoughts hold? Why do we enjoy deceiving ourselves? And why does a proper operation sometimes not make us healthier than a simulated one? The placebo effect is powerful! And if we have so many ways to influence the body with the mind – why do we do it so rarely on purpose? With a lot of humor, Eckart von Hirschhausen shows how you can make better decisions for your own health, what everyone can do and also refrain from doing. Clear language instead of package inserts. A reconciliatory book that provides guidance: What is healing magic, and where does dangerous nonsense begin? Hirschhausen discovers new wonder remedies in everyday life. Are we perhaps too little amazed? Jesus could turn water into wine. But.
