The Science and Wisdom of Original Brilliance. As embryologists, scientists, therapists, researchers and writers we have investigated the true nature of prenatal life and the experience of the embryo. Most healthcare providers underestimate or disregard this period in the biographies of their patients. The Mother of Medicine turns that failure on its head to reveal the science and the wisdom of the prenatal origins of health.
