We have been most fortunate serving on the Chatton Medical Library Library Committee is an oncologist, who is the National Chairman who investigates medical frauds. I've had several lively discussion about quackery and alternative medicine with Dr. Wallace Sampson. He recommended several books for our alternative medicine collection and buys books from NCAHF Book Sales, P.O. Box 1747, Allentown, PA 18105. Phone 215 437-1795. I've purchased alternative medicine books from Rittenhouse and Majors Scientific also, but discovered that NCAHF has better prices and seems to specialize in these type of publications. They have a list of 'Recommended Antiquackery Publicatons'. ."The Honest Herbal" is on the list. We have the book in the library and it is quite reliable information. Hope this helps.
