Abstract
Though this book is a reference text aimed at guiding consumers through the maze of Alternative Medicine, it can be useful resource for clinicians as well. The book is divided into 150 short chapters, each dedicated to one therapy or diagnostic method. Seven points are raised to assist patient in decision making, or at least, raise questions about the method, based on evidence. See sections 11.1 for Alternative Cancer cures; 11.7 Cancer diets.

Abstract
"Alternative medicine (AM) is popular; about 40% of the US general population have used alternative treatment in the past year, and in Germany this figure is around 70%. The global market is expected to reach nearly US $ 200 billion by 2025, with most of these funds coming directly out of consumers' pockets. Consumers are bombarded with misleading and false information on AM and therefore prone to making wrong, unwise, or dangerous therapeutic decisions, endangering their health and wasting their money. This book is a reference text aimed at guiding consumers through the maze of AM. This second edition includes over 50 additional treatments as well as updates on many others." - Provided by publisher
