4.5/5
6 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5This review is a masterclass in selective and information bias—plain and simple, the author cherry-picks information to support their claims. While there are snippets of deeply valuable insights, the bulk of the content is not just biased but harmful and dangerous. The author relentlessly bashes new therapies and the political left, presenting information with a clear conservative slant.
If we're going to discuss such crucial topics, it should be purely from a standpoint of scientific data, free from political or cultural bias. Unfortunately, the author does the exact opposite, continually discrediting anything that doesn't align with her views, while conveniently ignoring studies that refute her claims. This approach is not only misleading but also dangerous for readers who might take this information at face value.
In essence, this book is a glaring example of the very bias it purports to criticize. It's a disappointing and unacceptable attempt to inject politics into science. This isn't just unhelpful; it's unacceptable and dangerous. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Super helpful in looking at the potential side affects of therapy
