Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Written by a British medical journalist who has produced several documentary films on AIDS, this work presents an alternative to the overwhelmingly accepted belief that the HIV virus causes AIDS. Relying heavily on the work of Peter Duesberg, a molecular biologist who believes not only that HIV does not cause AIDS but also that AIDS is not an infectious disease at all (see his Inventing the Aids Virus, LJ 3/1/96), the author attempts to debunk the accepted scientific thought on this issue. Her work is fairly interesting, but she weakens her own case by resorting to name-calling; for example, she refers to well-known AIDS researcher Robert Gallo and his co-workers as the "King of Virology and his Courtiers." She also repeatedly expresses the dubious notion that mainstream AIDS researchers throughout the world, ignoring the obvious human costs, have closed ranks against dissenting opinions merely in order to protect their own financial interests. Only libraries with comprehensive AIDS collections or where there is great interest in AIDS might consider purchasing this book.?Linda Gleason, formerly with the Univ. of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey Lib., Newark

Format: Hardcover
Shenton's telling of a decade of investigation is a complementary part of the AIDS puzzle in main started and mostly filled in by scientists Robert Root-Bernstein and Peter Duesberg; - and Shenton journalistic comrades such as Jad Adams and Michael Fumento. Deductive, objective analysis of all the medical "reporting" of the AIDS statistics have always led to the realization that "you can't get there from here" in trying to understand what the establishment (NIH, CDC, WHO, etc.) has almost successfully rammed down the throats of Americans, and in doing so has killed tens to hundreds of thousands of patients decades before their time. The immense value of Shenton's work is that it is a lifesaving read for those who want to make their own decisions when confronted by a blood test that comes back "positive" for HIV antibodies as one can then refuse to be a fatal victim of the toxic therapy that is currently in vogue, and in fact one can then proceed to take the proper steps to fully recovered health as pointed to by this book and the other authors cited above.

Format: Hardcover
Shenton's book is the best work I've read yet that questions the link between HIV (or ANY virus, for that matter)and AIDS. Anyone who reads this book will be utterly transfixed by it. It is both fascinating and frightening to read about the unanswered questions that continue to vex scientists, researchers and the like about the supposed link between HIV and AIDS. What is more frightening, however, is the extent to which these individuals will go to prevent these gaps in AIDS theory from becoming public knowledge, and how they refuse even to entertain any other possible explanation(s) for AIDS other than their precious "virus." Meanwhile, people continue dying.

This Book is EXCELLENT! I highly recommend it to everyone, to get a better picture
of how we have been outright lied to, when it comes to HIV/AIDS.
I am very grateful that Joan Shenton put this information together and delivered it
in a very readable, user friendly manner.
Thank You, Joan ... I appreciate your enormous efforts to tell the truth to the world.

Format: Hardcover
The facts speak clearly: -

AIDS never spread into the hetero population.

People over 65 in both America and Canada get so called 'AIDS' three times MORE than teenagers. Hardly what you would expect from an std.

The mortality rate in South Africa from non natural causes is at exactly the same 2.2% PA level it was before 'AIDS'. How could all the old diseases simply vanish over night to be replace with a single syndrome?

Nothing about 'AIDS' makes sense and this book makes the point with great skill. A MUST READ.
