Dr. Chitranjan Daftuar is a very well-known face in the field of Health Psychology and clinical psychology. In this book he has described how the world has changed from Biological form to chemical form. He also lucidly explains how human body is turning out to be a Chemical Robot swallowing fistful medicines thrice a day to four times a day. He has attempted to simplify treatment of this robot by cosmic energy in the universe. Treatments like Touch, Hug, Embrace and transferring energy into a sick person are new techniques.
