The personal testimony of individuals engaged in healing practices and the opposing voices of orthodox and alternative medicines are the center of Healing Powers. Focusing on medical norms and practices and on competing philosophies of the mind, the body, reality, and rationality across radically different "belief systems", Fred Frohock clarifies the social and legal dilemmas represented by "scientific medicine" and "alternative care."

Fred M. Frohock is professor of political science at Syracuse University and the author of The Nature of Political Inquiry (1967), Normative Political Theory (1973), Public Policy: Scope and Logic (1979), and Abortion: A Case Study in Law and Morals (1983).
