Dr. Huggins' long-awaited book on hormonally-controlled human interactions! Why do we like some people, and dislike others? Who are we attracted to, and who repels us? They are all nice people, it's... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Hal Huggins DDS was a protege of Melvin Page, a Florida dentist who pioneered the study of endocrine imbalances and ill-health. Huggins has done an extremely good job of summarizing the categories that Page described as "andric" and "gynic," as well as other endocrine imbalances. In a nutshell, Page and Huggins correctly contend that the estrogens and testosterone and their metabolites exert different levels of effects in different people, and that this affects their personality, matrimonial bliss, and health. By administering miniscule doses of the "imbalanced" hormones, Page and Huggins were able to bring about dramatic results to "seemingly" unrelated illnesses. There are anecdotes, not mentioned in this book, that Page was even - in a few isolated cases - able to reverse cancer. Page also investigated disequilibria of other endocrine glands, such as the thyroid, the anterior and posterior pituitary, the adrenals, and pancreas. In the 1950s, when Page did his research, his work was truly amazing; today, when doctors can easily run tests to measure individual hormones, it's regrettable that his work has not been expounded on, and developed further. Both Huggins and Page are quite convincing, and worth reading.
