| Publisher Description: The Problem? Bad medicine It has been around for thousands of years. Patients have been poisoned, bled to death, dismembered, lied to, robbed, and purged since the first recording of history and, undoubtedly before that.Of course, modem medicine is quite incredible in many ways. Ophthalmic surgery, orthopedics, and emergency medicine are but a few of the examples of superb modern medicine. But ironically the bad has kept pace with the good. Some of my critics would consider that an exaggeration, but when you consider the deplorable situation in cancer therapy, for instance, it seems obvious that we are going backward in many areas.Of course many doctors are not consciously a part of the problem. Still, they have to survive in a system that rewards conflicts of interest, unnecessary treatments, and expensive, pointless diagnostic procedures, while practitioners of alternative, nontoxic therapies are persecuted and severely punished.This book is meant to counteract the massive propaganda on your television where over half the commercials are for one drug or another, some bogus diet plan, or an anti-cholesterol product that will give you the very disease you are trying to avoid. I hope you'll find it useful. |
