"Wonderful... Physicans would do well to learn this most important lesson about caring for patients." --The New York Times Book Review

Over the years that Victoria Sweet has been a physician, "healthcare" has replaced medicine, "providers" look at their laptops more than at their patients, and costs keep soaring, all in the ruthless pursuit of efficiency. Yet the remedy that economists and policy makers continue to miss is also miraculously simple. Good medicine takes more than amazing technology; it takes time--time to respond to bodies as well as data, time to arrive at the right diagnosis and the right treatment.

Sweet knows this because she has learned and lived it over the course of her remarkable career. Here she relates unforgettable stories of the teachers, doctors, nurses, and patients through whom she discovered the practice of Slow Medicine, in which she has been both pioneer and inspiration. Medicine, she helps us to see, is a craft and an art as well as a science. It is relational, personal, even spiritual. To do it well requires a hard-won wisdom that no algorithm can replace--that brings together "fast" and "slow" in a truly effective, efficient, sustainable, and humane way of healing.

Great product !!!

The product was in great shape when delivered. Even though the package was thin as it is the delivery was made with card and all was well with product. The instructions were good to use and change in my car. Also it showed the make of vehicle so I won’t be confused at all. Overall it was a great buy

Fits my Accord perfectly!
Size: 8.8" x 9.3" x 1.2"
Fits my 2008 Accord perfectly and feels just as sturdy as the OEM I used before, which cost nearly twice as much. Plus, it includes activated carbon, something the OEM didn’t have.
