Rise: The History of Integrative Medicine

This week on the Evolution of Medicine podcast, we feature, authors, Glenn Sabin and Taylor Walsh. Their book is called The Rise of Integrative Health and Medicine: The Milestones - 1963 to Present. It features over 120 of the most significant accomplishments in the field during the last 54 years. Evolution of Medicine is proud to be among the chosen milestones.

As we move to the end of 2016 and approach the new year, it's always interesting to look back and see what we have accomplished. We can move forward to 2017 and beyond with more confidence as we learn from the past and understand the impact of the milestones described in the book. You can sign up to receive a free copy of the e-book here.

In this podcast you will hear:

• ​why it is so important to document the key developments of the movement
• some of the most impressive milestones featured in the book
• the value of understanding the history of the movement for practitioners
• how reducing the cost of chronic disease and focusing on preventative medicine affect the movement
