Reviews / Votes
'"Hadler is a superb teacher. The reader learns to think independently and to reason critically about the many unsupported or unsupportable claims made on behalf of modern medicine, including much of modern pharmacology, surgery, and so-called alternative medicine. A must-read for both medical professionals and ordinary folk." Arthur Schafer, director, Centre for Professional and Applied Ethics, University of ManitobaMore details
