DuVall, Jr. D.C., President, National Association for Chiropractic MedicineThis extensive critique of the chiropractic profession brings to the public an awareness of the shortcomings, risks and incompetence in the field of manipulative therapy; at the same time, it provides the information needed to receive high-quality health carean expectation of all health care consumers. -HealthlineChiropractic can be recommended to physicians who desire a more in-depth understanding of the field. I found the information about the highly differing philosophies among chiropractic professional organizations to be of great interest. . . .
