. DrThis book is a thoughtful account of the community's development.' -- Pesticides News, December 2005 'The amazing story of the Sekem community in Egypt.

Stunningly illustrated with colour photographs throughout.. Dr. Ultimately, this would be a place where Islam and Western technology could come together in harmony. This was to become a place that would sell its produce and become self-sufficient and self-sustaining. ThUnderstandably, there is much that Rizzo could not disclose. Bravo, doctor, bravo!If you're still a doubter after reading these reviews, read Medical Nemesis by Ivan Illich. For each area, Egoscue gives exercises.
