Chiropractors: Do they help?

Although Chiropractors have been practicing for almost a century in North America, no in-depth study of their work has been carried out by independent researchers — until now. Chiropractors: Do they help? is an objective and highly readable account of the workings of one of the most misunderstood of health care professions. Written by three members of the Faculty of Medicine (Kelner, Hall & Coulter), University of Toronto, this "landmark in our understanding of chiropractic" is based on a $500,000 Canadian Government study.

The High Price of Health

Medicare is Not Working: Canadians are using medical services at a rapidly increasing rate, the health costs are spiraling out of control, and we aren't getting any healthier. What is wrong? The High Price of Health identifies a major cause of the problem — a militant, organized and powerful medical profession that has gained a monopoly over how our health dollars are spent and has funneled many of those dollars into its own pocket. Author Geoffrey York (former health policy reporter for the Globe and Mail) provides a shocking look behind the closed doors of Canada's medical establishment.
