Inventing the AIDS Virus Paperback – May 1, 1998

This book is a great resource not only about AIDS, but about medicine in general. It starts telling the story of the germ theory of disease, and the great successes of scientists like Koch and Pasteur identifying different germs as the causing agents of disease, and how this concept was extended to viruses when they were discovered. But then it switches to the sad story of how the current medical establishment (mainly for monetary reasons) has pushed the viral hunt beyond its limits, to try to explain ailments (like AIDS) that are mainly lifestyle (and not microorganism) based diseases. It tells the story of how nutritional based diseases (such as pellagra or scurvy) were once blamed on bacteria and how viruses have also been blamed for diseases such as the SMON fiasco in Japan, and even for cancer.

Then, naturally, the books shifts its attention onto AIDS. Duesberg leaves no ends loose in his thorough, scholarly and above all, perfectly logical account of the facts: AIDS is not and has never been an infectious disease. Decades after it was first described, it is still confined to the same risk groups: active homosexuals, drug users and hemophiliacs. He goes on to explain how dormant viruses cannot cause harm, and how HIV fails every one of Koch’s postulates. He also explains the real causes of AIDS, mainly drug abuse, and earlier in the 80s, antibiotic abuse. The scariest thing is how (similarly to what happens in cancer relapse after chemotherapy) it is the treatment what ultimately causes the onset of the disease in an otherwise healthy person.

Whether you agree with his position or not, this book is a must read for anyone interested in the topic. The narrative is incredibly dynamic and fascinating, almost like a thriller. For all its scholarly content, this book is anything but dry.

This well-crafted text has completely changed how I view the innovation constriction process of "peer-review" (should read "competitor review"). Masterfully written and argued -- for me, this is one of the best books I have read in the past 24-months (I read 20 - 35 books a year). As a sociologist, this book is a must read and I share and fairly discuss/debate the drugs-AIDS hypothesis versus the HIV-AIDS hypothesis with students in my research methods course. Thank you Dr. Duesberg for opening my eyes to an interesting perspective of science!

I purchased this book after looking at some videos on Youtube about the HIV/AIDS where Peter and others talked about how it has not been proved to be real. Also, I wanted to read this book just to see what all the hype was. The book is over 700 pages and so far I haven't had the chance to finish it. But from what I have read just in the first few chapters have made me rethink things and look at this with open eyes. A great read for anyone who is seeking answers and truth on this subject.

Great read. Extensively documented. A little dated. A must read for anyone in the health care field.

"Ignorance is preferable to error; and he is less remote from truth who believes nothing, than he who believes what is wrong."
-Thomas Jefferson

One of the largest mass murders in world history has been successfully covered up by the state through their control of schools and media. HIV does not cause AIDS. It never did, and our government and leading scientists have always known this fact. Our own doctors poisoned us without even knowing what they were doing; just blindly following authority figures and trying to hold on to their medical licenses. 650,000 human beings murdered in the U.S. alone with medically prescribed variants of the deadly chemotherapy HIV drug AZT, and other cleverly disguised lies .

The proof of this is easily verified. If HIV were really the cause of AIDS, and AIDS was really sexually transmissible then why hasn't AIDS simply decimated Latin America by now? Are all of the HIV carriers in Latin America being given expensive antiviral drugs at the expense of their governments as well? Why aren't we hearing on the news stories of the overwhelming cost of medicating illegal aliens who have HIV? Why aren't illegal aliens dying in the street in droves of untreated AIDS? This is a fact that you know is true, and there is no need for a group of government scientists to tell you about statistics, laboratory tests, or magical drugs in order for you to believe it.

By the way, AIDS is also caused by malnutrition. This explains the deaths in Africa. It seems that when people are horrible undernourished for years their immune systems tend to collapse.

This is the sort of secret that could change the very nature of our civilization if it were widely understood by the masses. Our leaders know this.

Unfortunately, in order to understand Dr Duesberg' s argument you must first hear it, and then you must be able to reason through the evidence for your self. Well, this is where the state has us by the throats:
(1) You will never hear Dr. Duesberg' s arguments regarding HIV on Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, or any other mainstream news channel. You'll never read them in mainstream print. The state has locked him out of every platform from which to inform the masses except through this book. And through us.
(2) What Arthur Schopenhauer called "the science of the process of pure reason" (i.e., formal/classical logic) hasn't been taught in state controlled public schools for at least seven generation. Formal logic has been recognized since its invention in 350 B.C. as the most effective way to analyze arguments in order to determine whether they or not they are correctly reasoned. According to Aristotle you should ensure that an argument is "sound" or "cogent" before you believe it with confidence. Ask any group of average U.S. adults what the logical terms sound or cogent mean. Not one in twenty will be able to give you a correct answer. And this is no accident.

Here's are a few concise and accurate definitions that apply to both inductive and deductive reasoning that you may find helpful:

"Fallacious reasoning is just the opposite of what can be called cogent reasoning. We reason cogently when we reason (1) validly; (2) from premises well supported by evidence; and (3) using all relevant evidence we know of. The purpose of avoiding fallacious reasoning is, of course, to increase our chances of reasoning cogently."
-Howard Kahane, Logic and Contemporary Rhetoric, 1976, second edition

"The fallacy of suppressed evidence is committed when an arguer ignores evidence that would tend to undermine the premises of an otherwise good argument, causing it to be unsound or uncogent. Suppressed evidence is a fallacy of presumption and is closely related to begging the question. As such, it's occurrence does not affect the relationship between premises and conclusion but rather the alleged truth of premises. The fallacy consists in passing off what are at best half-truths as if they were whole truths, thus making what is actually a defective argument appear to be good. The fallacy is especially common among arguers who have a vested interest in the situation to which the argument pertains."
-Patrick Hurley, A Concise Introduction to Logic (1985)

"Aristotle devides all conclusions into logical and dialectical, in the manner described, and then into eristical. (3) Eristic is the method by which the form of the conclusion is correct, but the premises, the material from which it is drawn, are not true, but only appear to be true. Finally (4) sophistic is the method in which the form of the conclusion is false, although it seems correct. These three last properly belong to the art of Controversial Dialectic, as they have no objective truth in view, but only the appearance of it, and pay no regard to truth itself; that is to say, they aim at victory."
-Arthur Schopenhauer, The Art of Controversy

"We ought in fairness to fight our case with no help beyond the bare facts: nothing, therefore, should matter except the proof of those facts."
-Aristotle, Rhetoric

"The truth or falsity of a statement depends on facts, not on any power on the part of the statement itself of admitting contrary qualities". - Aristotle, Categories

"Similarly with any other art or science. Consequently, if the attributes of the thing are apprehended, our business will then be to exhibit readily the demonstration. For if none of the true attributes of things had been omitted in the historical survey, we should be able to discover the proof and demonstrate everything which admitted of proof, and to make that clear , whose nature does not admit of proof". - Aristotle, Prior Analytics

"We suppose ourselves to posses unqualified scientific knowledge of a thing, as opposed to knowing it in the accidental way in which the sophist knows, when we think that we know the cause on which the fact depends, as the cause of that fact and of no other, and further, that the fact could not be other than it is". - Aristotle, Posterior Analytics

Dr. Peter Duesberg has very bravely presented the world with a powerful cogent argument that our governments have deliberately committed mass murder.

Whether they have done it for profit or population control Dr. Duesberg leaves to you to decide.

P.S.
After checking many of the Amazon profile pages of people who have reviewed 'Inventing the AIDS Virus' I found out something very disturbing. The majority of the reviews of this book are not listed on the reviewers' profile page. This can be easily and quickly corrected by Amazon of course, but it does have the effect of further suppressing and isolating Dr. Duesberg' s views. And I suspect that this is no accident.

I really did. When it came out, it was so thorough and so well composed that I thought reading it would undo the HIV AIDS hypothesis. Alas, no dice. It seems that to most people science is what they tell you - and not math and logic.

If you want some sanity though, read the book.

Must read for all! The lies have been exposed !
