Read something else 8 Jan 2007
By Jose Joacir dos santos - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
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.
