Dr. Marc Siegel, a veteran physician, examines these cases through the lens of spirituality in his new book, “The Angels Among Us.” ([1]) Where Clinical Practice...
Walk into any sun-drenched room occupied by a cat, and you’ll almost certainly find the same scene: a perfectly good pet bed sitting empty while your cat is sprawled in a warm rectangle of light on the floor. It’s one of those small mysteries of daily life with a feline that turns out to have...
