The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Body-Mind  Disciplines, a comprehensive new reference covering over 120  disciplines, has been published by The Rosen Publishing.    As alternative medicine is gaining recognition in traditional health  care, this timely volume is a welcome and essential resource.  The  500-page, one-volume encyclopedia features practical details as well  as historical and theoretical information about body-mind practices  within all of the major disciplines, from the familiar martial arts,  meditation and massage to lesser-known therapies and techniques.  While the approaches of the different practices often vary widely,  their purpose of incorporating the body with the thinking and feeling  processes of the mind is universal -- to enable a person to live a  long, meaningful, and healthy life.    Written by over 125 experts in their respective fields, the  lavishly-illustrated encyclopedia includes boxed insets highlighting  important facts about each discipline, annotated resource lists, and  sources for further reading.    Editor Nancy Allison, CMA, currently teaches Laban movement analysis  and Bartenief Fundamentals at New York University School of Education.  She is also on the faculty at the Lincoln Center Institute and the  Laban-Bartenief Institute of Movement Studies.
