This book (advised by my mother) is really exciting. It tells the story of fasting as a medical therapy for an impressive amount of incurable diseases believed. It does not give way to the unfolding of a fast (you have to buy another book to implementation), but it tells the story of its discovery in the United States and Russia by doctors worthy of the name. When it is finished all you want is to experience, even if one is not sick. His reading has really changed my way of looking at health. It is understood that the body has an incredible ability to regenerate, and that eventually, all that prevents the spread of such therapy, it is still and always a monetary history and conflicts of interest etc ..
