The Body Electric: Electromagnetism And The Foundation Of Life

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of
regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic
understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital
to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may
be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original
work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and
healing.
