The Well (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781567031034)

About the Author, R. Chapman Wesley I was born into the midpoint of a tradition of healing spanning 3 generations between my father, a primary care physician born in rural Jim Crowe Virginia and my daughter, a dermatologist and surgeon in a Beverly Hills practice. Mine was a destiny imbued with both the science and art of healing from a very early age. As a child, I would play for hours beneath my father's desk. For the most part, most of his patients had no idea I was there. I am convinced now that those experiences shaped in my being the power of the therapeutic relationship, culminating during my professional career in an interest in clinical hypnosis. Equally important in my perspective of healing has been rapture in the creative arts, especially dance leading to an interest in meditative movement, such as tai chi, and kung fu, and sports particularly the Ying and Yang of basketball. These experiences energized my imagination and along with an innate curiosity propelled my interest in scientific investigation and from there to the simplicity and magic of numbers. It is from these perspectives that I offer to you The Well.
