the topic's only peripherally related to the kind of discussions that are frequently generated here, but the approach the author takes is fabulous. He's writing about health practices that seem effective but aren't scientifically defensible - and he shows a wonderful sense of balance. It's a standard I wish more popular science writing would aspire to.
