HEALING AND THE MIND

Aiming for maximum exposure, Moyers's excellent five-part series, originally broadcast on PBS, is also available in book form and in this soundtrack production. This program has the obvious shortcomings of a soundtrack isolated from its visual counterpart, such as lengthy periods of Chinese speech without the benefits of subtitles and a martial arts demonstration which makes little sense in audio. However, Moyers's probing and sensitive voice, along with the articulate statements of people he skillfully interviews, first-rate engineering, and the freedom to enjoy this program in a variety of settings more than compensate for these shortcomings. This program will be widely used and appreciated. S.K. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT 93]
