"You hold in your hands a book that is the result of a most blessed life. Through it you will become part of a quiet revolution in health care. I write these words with a profound awareness of what a blessed life I have lived. I have seen incurable diseases cured, the permanently crippled walk, and the infertile give birth.  I have seen patients hobble into a clinic with debilitating back pain and walk out pain free. Through these amazing experiences, I have seen the great potential ancient medicines hold for healing and transforming the lives of people everywhere. 

The profession of a physician has not been without its tragedies. I have seen more people die in a few short years of training than most will ever see in several lifetimes. I have seen people cut down in the prime of their lives by cancer, leaving young children and successful careers behind. I have seen men in their early forties die of heart attacks, and I have seen a three-year-old die as a result of complications of a tonsillectomy. Having experienced such tragedies, I now hold in my mind the blessing of how precious and delicate life is. It has also steeled my will to do everything in my power to prevent such tragedies from ever occurring and to finding less invasive ways of healing."
