Publisher's Synopsis
Unveil the concealed realities that shaped the Western world's health evolution, transitioning from an era overshadowed by the specter of infectious diseases to an epoch of prosperity, relative health, and well-being. Dive into the extended Dissolving Illusions: 10th Anniversary Edition, where you'll explore an additional 200+ pages, over 300 new references, and even more charts that challenge traditional medical dogma.
Embark on a historical saga of famine, poverty, buried and lost cures, and conflicts between individual freedoms and government mandates and laws. Explore overlooked vital statistics illustrated by easy-to-understand charts that scrutinize the impact of vaccines, antibiotics, and medical interventions on the increase in lifespan and decline of mortality from infectious diseases. Examine the concealed role of medicine in causing much injury and death over centuries. Dissolving Illusions meticulously presents facts and figures from forgotten medical journals, books, newspapers, and diverse sources: dispelling the prevailing false narratives that largely attribute increased lifespan and premature death prevention to medical interventions. Are you prepared to dissolve some of your own illusions and engage in a transformative journey that will challenge much of what you think you know? If you have already begun the journey, the contents of this book will help to deepen your understanding and knowledge of historical facts.
