One of the best books on chiropractic philosophy
This book is excellent because it tells why adjustments are given--to correct subluxations. It talks about innate and so forth. However, sometimes it's a little scary how some members of the chiro profession worship B.J. and D.D. Palmer. Forms of adjustments have been around for thousands of years from the Romans, Greeks, Chinese. Yes, I know, they were not specific, they did manipulations. Anyway, chiropractic works, it has been working for thousands of years in one form or another. However, it works greater now because now it is specific--targeted to removing nerve interference and correcting the subluxation. I also, highly recommend.National Board of Chiropactic Part IV Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers

vol 2, isbn: 0974328774
These study guides are awesome for the Part IV exam. The best out there.
Once again Chiropractic First is so important for the chiropractor to be successful in practice. This is because this book gives the reasons why a chiroprator is giving an adjustment, which will make patients realize how important it is to correct a subluxation.

For open minded people
If you're locked in the "medical model" of treating sickness and disease, you probably have no interest in chiropractic or any other "alternative" health care system. So, this book won't be for you. But if you are looking for a better way to approach health and wellness and want an easy-to-read introduction to chiropractic, this book is excellent.If you notice, most of the people who criticized the book hated chiropractic to begin with -- it's not surprising that they rated the book so low. But that's just their prejudice showing. This book clearly notes that chiropractic isn't a "cure all" == it is merely (merely??) a way for us to allow our bodies to work properly, the way they were meant to work. It's no wonder the medical profession (and its proponents) fear it. The book is thorough and easy to read, with plenty of real-life cases to prove the points made. A good companion book is "Chiropractic Works."

 Balderdash!
I have reviewed this book and find that, even today, 108 years after D. D. Palmer "discovered" chiropractic, that Rondberg and many of the other reviewers still cling to this yet to be proven "subluxation" and "nerve flow" theory. No one has yet, to scientifically prove that a "subluxation" in the chiropractic sense, actually exists. There has never been any credible published information concerning the relationship of the "subluxations" to organic disease (skin problems, problems walking, diabetes, heart disorders, liver disease, etc). To publish such a book in today's world is irresponsible and leads false hope to people who need true help. It is true that the human body does have the ability to heal itself, but certainly not by the use of spinal adjustments to correct "subluxations." The book reads like a comic book.
