REPLY RE: WAR AGAINST ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE

[Guest guest]

Dear Donna

Thank you for your email expressing interest in " The War Against Alternative

Medicine " . I have gotten so many emails about it - I had no idea that

someone had sent out a notice about it, but I'm thrilled.

The book will be in print about the end of February. It's 8 1/2 by 11

format, about 225 pages and will cost $21.95, with $5 shipping and handling.

It's the result of two years of research, tracking down proof that the

Federation of State Medical Boards and the AMA have mounted a deliberate and

highly organized campaign to destroy complementary / alternative medicine by

driving all the CAM doctors out of practice - destroying them financially and

professionally, revoking their licenses, etc. The effort is nationwide. So

far only California has succeeded in firing their state medical board and

installing one that is not corrupt. The corrent worst of the crop is New

York State, where SEVENTY-TWO PERCENT of the state's CAM physicians either

have been, or are, under investigation by the state medical board.

It is clear from the documentation that the FSMB and the AMA equate

" alternative " and " complementary " with " fraudulent " . A loosely-knit

propaganda netwrok called the Quackbusters is heavily involved too.

We are setting up a web page for it at <A HREF= " http:// " >

Quicksilverpress@members/aol.com</A> and will be able to accept online

payment through Paypal. Or the book can be ordered by check from

Quicksilver Press, 211 W. 92nd St. Suite 71, New York, N.Y. 10025.

It is a shocking book and we hope that publishing it will alert people

to the fact that physicians who practice alternative medicine are under

brutal attack by the medical-industrial-pharmaceutical complex. Only public

pressure can stop this and preserve the public's right to freedom of medical

choice.
