Barbara Ann Brennan is a healer who developed her own system of human energy field healing, and this Bantam Books volume is her own guide presenting that method, drawing on her background as a research scientist before turning to energy healing practice. Its value for this atlas is as a primary statement of Brennan's own practitioner method in her own words, useful for describing what this specific healing system actually teaches and how it is practiced. Its limit is exactly that primary character, it is the founder's own promotional and instructional account of her method, not an independent scientific or scholarly evaluation of its claims, so a claim about the method's actual therapeutic effectiveness needs an independent evaluative source rather than this practitioner's own guide.
