5.0 out of 5 stars
Snake Oild by John Diamond
A must-read book for anyone treating patients with Cancer, for anyone with Cancer or for anyone involved with patients with any illness. An amazingly courageous man and extraordinarily moving story.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Cynicism and half truth
This is a terrible book written in a debunking polemical style but offering nothing of hope or evidence for its claims. As usual Dawkins writes in his usual evangelical style and mirrors that which he professes to despise. As for Dominic Lawson! No comment!

Just a short note,
By "schatjes" (Sarasota, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Snake Oil and Other Preoccupations (Audio Cassette)
Dear interested readers, although I live in the US I ordered from Amazon UK to get a hold of the paperback version of this book. I just received it this weekend. The 6 chapters which were available for "snake oil" are quite medical and speaks mostly about the fact that most alternative medicine is never been proven to work. I haven't read it all yet, so I can't not yet get specificthe most part of the book are articles written by John from 1989 till a few days before his untimely death. The topics are as varied as they come: Geneva, Yiddish, cancer, book reviews etc. Those are mostly more upbeat written then the first 6 chapters. To conclude: I love his writing style. I'm sorry I haven't gotten a chance to see or hear any of his shows like in the UK. He leaves behind a great legacy.
