Health or Hell

As I have entered in to the fifth decade of my medical profession, phenomenal changes have happened in the way we practice medicine, with the invasion of technology, corporate business, marketing, legalities etc. But certain facts are disturbing. The poor cannot afford it and the rich are inviting diseases of greed and accumulation, the middle class are getting the double whammy of losing money and health in trying to ape the rich. Medical profession has become disease-centric, technology dependent and Buyer-seller relationships. Certain fundamental questions need answers. Has the individual's health and happiness improved? Who should take care of health? What is the role of health in our quest for wealth & careers ? Have we forgotten what is life? Why does one get diseases? Is health just conquering diseases or chasing medical parameters? What is health and what are the parameters of health? Which system and which doctor or hospital to consult? I have written this book to help the hapless individuals to wade through this maze of confusions, in simple, practical and 'Do It Yourself' way. If those who read, practice and propagate this knowledge get benefited, the purpose of this book is served.
