Review: man an einer "alternativen" Sicht eines Arzt interessiert ist. Es ist die Sache der Meinung, ob man Impfungen anerkennt oder nicht oder ob man die heutige Pädiatrie mag oder nicht, aber dieses buch stellt in vielen Bereichen die Medizin aus völlig anderer Perspektive dar, sodass man sich nach Durchlesen für eigene Meinung entscheiden kann. Ich würde es allen Ärzten und Eltern empfehlen, damit sie die Gesundheit der Kinder und die Gesundheit und Heilung an sich mal von einer anderen Seite anschauen und den eigenen Standpunkt überlegen. Es wird nämlich sicher nicht alles so wein, wie es heute Medizin empfiehlt (bin selber Facharzt, also ich weiß, wie Medizin funktioniert), denn auch medizinische Emfpehlungen sind Sache der "Mode" und aktuellen Empfehlungen, an die man zu der Zeit glaubt. Dieses Buch stellt einiges ins Licht des gesunden Verstandes der Groß-groß-mütter dar.
