Book Reviews of Alternative Medicine Magazine's Definitive Guide to Cancer: An Integrative Approach to Prevention, Treatment, and Healing (Alternative Medicine Guides)
Book Review: Definitive rubbish!
Summary: 1 Stars
This book is horrid. It pretends to give a "balanced" view of traditional allopathic medicine's approach to cancer, versus alt-medicine. There are actually more than half the pages devoted to the latter. But the orientation of the authors is pathetic. They basically view alt approaches as some do-nothing supplement to traditional chop/burn/poison treatments. As many people are aware, if you have been systematically poisoned by chemo or radiation, alt-medicine has very little to help you. Nowhere in the book do the authors present an alt-medicine approach that is usable, detailed (dosages, etc.) and endorsed as the person's sole strategy.
For decent advice, please read:
The Natural Way to Heal: 65 Ways to Create Superior Health, by Walter Last. If you are too poor to buy this (inexpensive) book, Last has a web site where he gives much of the same information (but it is easier to have it all collected into a book, in my view).
