Reviews for Quackonomics:
Profound investigation of medical fraud
Quackenomics is an historic work. What the “muckrakers” did for their time, this book will do for ours. The fraud in our medical system that Dr. Welch has so thoroughly documented is so out of control that one has to doubt the capability of our capitalistic system to deal with medicine for profit. The extent of quackery in all of the “alternative” medical practices and in the pharmaceutical industry was staggering. This book is a “must read”.

He has written numerous magazine articles on safety at sea and founded Medical Sea Pak Company, dedicated to marine first-aid preparation and education. In 1972, with three friends, he embarked on what was to become an annual sailing adventure, later to evolve into the LaTrappe Creek Historical and Ecological Society. This book is a travelogue of sailing to exotic locales, lavishly illustrated with many wonderful photos and original paintings by the author.
