Publisher's Note A remarkable first-person account of a young doctor's spiritual journey. Chopra guides us from his beginnings in India, through the conventional training of a Western physician, to his discovery of the ancient traditions of India's Ayurveda and the dimension of the mind in medicine.
With Return of the Rishi, Dr. Chopra continues his remarkable prescription for perfect health as he describes his own journey from India to the West and from a formal practice as a board-certifiied endocrinologist to a wider ciew of the primacy of the mind and spirit.
Industry Reviews "Dr. Chopra has charted the territory for a medicine of the future. [He] restores the vital missing link, which is the mental and spiritual. It is very inspiring to see this task attempted by a skilled physician who can fathom the depths of the human spirit." Book Jacket - Larry Dossey
