This book is the classic record of the identification and location of energies from the earth which are noxious to human beings and others.
Many of the results are attested by medical doctors who found that cures were only effective after exposure to noxious earth energies was eliminated. Cases are quoted which include the use of these techniques by physicians for their own health.
These illustrations are accompanied by records of the illnesses resulting from sleeping, or sitting for a long time, in the energy fields - and how great improvement in health occurred when the location of beds, school seats, etc., were moved.< Less
