[.ca] Dr Melissa Palmers Guide To Hepatitis And Liver Disease (ISBN 1583331883)

Western Med:
This book is PRO- Western Med and the authors bias is very clear. Continued bashing of non-traditional or eastern med is very clear. She expresses clear findings on Inerferon and indicates for the most part no conclusive data on herbal alternatives.
