1.0 out of 5 stars
Read something else, 8 Jan 2007
By Jose Joacir dos santos "Joacir" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Legal Issues in Alternative Medicine: A Guide for Clinicians, Hospitals and Patients (Paperback)
If you are looking for a book to guide you on legal issues in the United States, read something else. This book does not go direct to the point. Which star should I give to it? I will tell you when I find something other book that talks about legal issues for "alternative" medicine.
