Micozzi was the founding editor-in-chief of The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine: Research on Paradigm, Practice and Policy.[citation needed] He also organized and edited the first US textbook in his field, Fundamentals of Complementary & Alternative Medicine, which was published in 1996.[2] The fourth edition of the textbook was published in 2011. In 2010 the book, Teaching Mindfulness: A Practical Guide for Clinicians and Educators, which he wrote with Donald McCown and Diane C. Reibel, was published.[3]
