Consumer's Guide to Alternative Medicine: A Close Look at Homeopathy, Acupuncture, Faith Healing and Other Unconventional Treatments Book

Butler disposes of the myths and madness perpetrated by fringe practitioners, bogus nutritionists, "health pornographers," and the "quackery mafia." Laying bare the absurdities and dangers of some popular diets and the unethical behavior of health gurus, he also shows how some unscientific "healing cults" are getting their dogma written into state law, defrauding the public and siphoning off billions of healthcare dollars.

After decades of bestselling books that promote killer diets, worthless supplements, dangerous self-care regimens, and assorted health misinformation, the time has come for a book that clarifies the issues and sets straight the facts on homeopathy, acupuncture, faith-healing, and other unconventional treatments.
