While serving using the Peace Corps in Swaziland, Thomas Cowan encountered the function of Rudolf Steiner and Weston A. Cost – two guys whose ideas would fascinate and concern him for decades to arrive. Both attracted to the artwork of recovery and repelled by the way medicine was-and continues to be-practiced in america, Cowan came back from Swaziland, went to medical college, and set up a practice. He remained intrigued by the task of Price and Steiner and, specifically, with Steiner’s provocative claim that the center isn’t a pump. Dr. Cowan believes that Steiner was right that the heart is not a pump, and our knowledge of heart disease is completely wrong. And this gross misunderstanding is the reason heart disease continues to be the most frequent cause of loss of life worldwide.
