torn by the spine, stamp and sticker on the FEP and catalogue page, sticker on back cover. In this practical text the term "hunger diseases" is used to include all those disorders that are based on a lack of self-esteem. The author deals with a wide variety of problems in this area, not just involving anorexia, bulimia and obesity, but also including hunger in depressives, gastrointestinal disturbances, cardiovascular disorders and their relationship to hunger for attention, as well as emotional hunger in life-threatening situations involving serious illnesses and starvation.

ABOUT THE BOOK:- The book gives the author experience with fasting as well as many testimonies from letter he received from people who tried fasting and ended up with fantastic results. Results such as cures for a great number of diseases and ailments including cancer.

His novel “Dragon's Teeth” on the rise of Nazisms won him the Pulitzer Prize.
