I know there are posts listing books about osteopathic medicine. I can't find it in search. Does anyone know of such a thread?

If not, do you guys have any recommendations? I am currently reading The DOs by Gevitz. Is there a book that goes more into the theory/philosophy of osteopathic medicine?

The DOs by Norman Gevitz is a must read and I'm glad you're reading it.

If you want to understand the theories and foundation of osteopathic medicine, there are "Osteopathic Medicine" books that talks abou theories and techniques but it might be at a "higher" level than what you need (basically aimed for osteopathic medical students and practicing osteopathic physicians)

If you want a general review and history of osteopathic medicine, here are some books that you might want to try out
