Editorial Review:
Galileo's Lawyer is an insider's view of the Alternative Health field based on the legal battles between medical mavericks,their patients, and the government and the church of medical orthodoxy. The book relates courtroom dramas such as the government's fourteen year battle against the Burzynski Cancer Clinic in Houston. It also tells how the government stopped a promising stem cell treatment, explains the battles between nutritionists and the registered dietitians, describes how New Jersey chiropractors fought against the government (and won), explains why naturopaths are prosecuted for practicing medicine without a license, and presents other stories involving experimental treatments and medical pioneers.
