Dedication
I dedicate this work to the State of Michigan University,
my Alma Mater.
To my brother Bruno, a Superior Doctor: specialist in neurology,
physiatry; friend and partner in my intellectual interests,
my grateful thought, remembering his love for original research,
his professional honesty and courage.
With Bruno, for many years I followed the path over undiscovered
grounds, sharing our exalting experiences.
To the “scientist” S. G. who withobstinate, persistent
stubbornness fights to preserve“official medical practice” from
the dangerous contamination of Chinese Traditional Medicine
of“unproved” efficiency.
The Chinese say: he who is wise keeps silent, he who knows
not, speaks loud.
To my whole family; to the many very special friends; to
the countless patients, who have given me trust, support, stimulus;
to each, so unique, to everyone so important, I would like
to say thank you! individually. I shall gather them ideally
together into one great: Thanks!
To this work I offer my material and immaterial transcendence.
