Books Recommended By Our Members

Caution: when it comes to books on cancer, healing and remedies, be skeptical, be very skeptical. In general, if it seems too good to be true, it is! In trying to review books for inclusion on this list, I found that, in my view, 60% of the books out there on healing and cancer were compromised by the author trying to sell a product or service. Another 20% of the books were so scientifically unsound that it would be a disservice to our members to suggest they buy or read them. And another 10% were so off-the-wall that it’s difficult to determine exactly what they are saying or promoting.

In culling out the weeds of information, it is likely that some very good books have been missed. If you know of some, keep track of them, and when this web site is updated next year, we will ask for your suggestions and expand the list. Thank you. MEL
