FRINGE MEDICINE Sin,—Mr. Murray's excellent survey of unorthodox healing entitled 'Fringe Medicine' is a bold step towards enlightening the public as to the true con- cept of natural therapeutics.

When unorthodox methods of treatment are so often condemned out of hand by the ill-informed, ,h_ow refreshing it is to read in a serious-minded pub- lication such a comprehensive and impartial survey. ,_,We believe that it is every man's right to choose his method of treatment and that it is equally right to allow that method to be practised. Today, many people regard what is so aptly described 'fringe medicine' as the only valid basis for the physical and moral regeneration of the nunian race. Spoilt and exhausted as it is through the conditions of life, the excesses of industrial civilisa- tion, and the abuses of orthodox suppressive drugs. Yours faithfully,

JON EVANS
