So-Called Alternative Medicine (SCAM) for Cancer

Edzard Ernst
So-Called Alternative Medicine (SCAM) for Cancer

Cancer victims are bombarded with misleading information about alternative medicine. Many such treatments try to sell false hope at inflated prices, and many promise a cure without side-effects. This book explains why alternative cancer cures are a fallacious concept. However, it also outlines the important role of alternative medicine in supporting cancer patients and improving their quality of life.
