Rolfing is a form of alternative medicine originally developed by Ida Rolf (1896–1979) as Structural Integration.
It is typically delivered as a series of ten hands-on physical manipulation sessions sometimes called "the recipe". It is based on Rolf's ideas about how the human body's "energy field" can benefit when aligned with the Earth's gravitational field. Practitioners combine superficial and deep manual therapy with movement prompts. The process is sometimes painful. It is not known whether Rolfing is safe.

The principles of Rolfing contradict established medical knowledge, and there is no good evidence Rolfing is effective for the treatment of any health condition. It is recognized as a pseudoscience and has been characterized as quackery.

It was 1972, time of the cult-occult-commune explosion. By day, the Source Family dressed in colorful robes and served organic cuisine to John Lennon, Julie Chistie, Frank Zappa, and many other celebrities at the famed Source restaurant. By night, in their mansion in the Hollywood Hills, they explored the cosmos with their spiritual leader, Father Yod. Yod was an outlandish figure who had 14 wives, drove a Rolls-Royce, and fronted his own psychedelic rock band, Ya Ho Wa 13, now considered one of the most singular psychedelic bands of all time. He surprised many by suddenly morphing from health food restaurateur into mystical leader of what many considered a cult: a group of young people who lived strictly devoted to his esoteric teachings, unusual sexual practices, and philosophies of natural living and dying.

This is a "first thus" edition of a work that in its day was second in popularity only to Bram Stoker's "Dracula." Set in bohemian Paris in the middle of the 19th century, the novel's title character is a tone-deaf Irish artist's model and laundress who becomes a world-class singer whenever she performs under the spell induced by the mesmerist Svengali. First issued serially in "Harper's Monthly" in 1894, the novel sold 200,000 copies in America alone when it appeared in book form the next year. Artist, book illustrator, and cartoonist George Du Maurier (1834-96) specialised in lampooning the social pretensions of the nouveau riche as a staff cartoonist for "Punch" magazine, but later turned to writing fiction due to worsening problems with his vision.
