Harold Reilly and Ruth Hagy Brod, The Edgar Cayce Handbook for Health Through Drugless Therapy (New York: Macmillan, 1975). This is the most comprehensive and usable book about Cayce’s health maintenance ideas. Dr. Reilly is widely respected as the one who played the pivotal role in systematizing the health maintenance recommendations of Edgar Cayce.
K. Paul Johnson, Edgar Cayce in Context (Albany, N.Y.: State University of New York Press, 1998). A scholarly analysis of Edgar Cayce’s teachings arranged according to the four roles that he played in his work: holistic health adviser, Christian theosopher, clairvoyant time traveler, and esoteric psychologist. It is among the most significant books written about Cayce in recent years.
Bruce McArthur, Your Life: Why It Is the Way It Is and What You Can Do About It (Virginia Beach, Va.: ARE Press, 1993). Edgar Cayce emphasized how certain universal laws govern life, and this book covers the fundamentals of how they work.
