In this book, James Randi, internationally known as a magician and investigator of claims of alleged paranormal abilities, has compiled a strong indictment of such charlatans. It is a story of deception and greed on the part of many "healers" and evidence of the gullibility and misplaced faith of their victims. Astonishingly clever tricks used by some of the subjects of this book are revealed for the first time, and these disclosures are supported by strong evidence gathered by Randi and a team of colleagues over four years of careful investigation.
The Faith-Healers lays bare the practices of leading televangelists--among them Peter Popoff, W. V. Grant, Pat Robertson, and Oral Roberts--and other so-called "healers." In this expose, Randi stands up for the millions of believers who continue to be victimized and makes a strong case for legal action to end the chicanery.
A fascinating look at a world of misplaced faith and blind trust that seems more appropriate to the Dark Ages than to the end of the 20th century.

reviewed The Faith Healers on December 29, 2016 The Faith Healers
The faith healing empire, shielded but the blind faith of the credulous, claims to resurrect the death and heal the dying. Dubious accounts of shrinking tumors and regaining of sight by the holy touch of a faith healer's appendage have threatened to render centuries of medical research useless. It is baffling that the vulnerable, knee deep in debt, do not ask why their stone-deaf and stone-blind friend in the sky would want a million dollars.
James Randi has spent decades of his life debunking the practices of pseudoscience. This book talks extensively about the functioning of such industries, bringing to light it's fallacious assertions.
