Placebos (The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series)

As a starting point in Quantum Medicine the book is unusually complete. I would call it required reading. A cover story for research into aspects of non-local treatments....

I liked the manner in which this book was written, it is easy to read and enables grasp of complicated subjects. Can't wait to read more books by Dr. K. T. Hall.

I have been interested in the placebo effect for many years and during that time I have read books and manyarticles about it and yet much of what I read in this book was brand new to me. This book gave me a whole new outlook on this subject and was quite easy to read. The placebo effect always seemed like somethingmagical during medical treatment but now a lot of it makes sense although there is still much that needs tobe figured out. This book should be of great interest to anyone who is interested in medicine or biology.

An amazingly easy read about the complex and fascinating world of placebos. Dr. Hall demystifies placebos through compelling story telling and historical perspectives that will answer all the questions you have. I look forward to her next book!

Kathryn Hall's "Placebos" is a very well written, entertaining, comprehensive, and authoritative summary of what is know about placebos and the placebo effect. I recommend it enthusiastically!
