I had picked up this book at a yard sale and liked it so much ordered a second copy on eBay for my Accupuncture Doctor as a gift. The author is a Stanford MD and also a Native American Indian Medicine Man. This is a look at traditional medicine and alternative medicine and some of the results good and bad. Makes me want to experience alternative medicine at one of the many Native American Indian Reservations in New Mexico and elsewhere. Also makes you wonder how many times you have seen a traditional MD do a little tap dance to cover for one of his colleages - how many time have we experienced this? Sometimes you are lucky enough to have a doctor who is not "tap dancing". Interesting reading and for those of us who live among Native Americans in the United States a closer look at their cultures and beliefs. A close look at many Native American Indians' legends and stories. If you read Tony Hillerman you might also find this interesting although it's not what you usually call a mystery. An Excellent Read. oregonbevRead full review
From childhood I've been fascinated by Native American traditions and practices and, in adulthood, I've studied many health-care modalities... Coyote Medicine brings together the Native American healing traditions and The Medical Model we know as allopathic medicine. In my view, it's a must-read for doctors, nurses, therapists and alternative health care practitioners. Extremely well written, Coyote Medicine wends its way through the maze of various healing practices in a thoroughly reliable way. Various Native healing practices are authentically described and woven alongside allopathic threads, also reliable and authentic. Coyote Medicine is a book I first read soon after it was published and, as I'd borrowed that copy it's a book I wanted for my own shelves - to read again and to keep as a reference. I highly recommend it to all health care practitioners.Read full review
