I have written to Stephen Barrett before.  He makes valid points, but
has no apparent sympathy towards holistic medicine.  I think he should
be careful not to "throw out the baby with the bathwater".  I have
gotten so much from holistic medicine I hate to see it uniformly
maligned. At the same time we should try to look at things from all
sides though.  I just wish standard medicine and holistic medicine would
join up and then we'd have the best of both worlds.  Mary Jackson
