“Dissolving Illusions” details facts and figures from long – overlooked medical journals, books, newspapers, and other sources. Using myth – shattering graphs, this book shows that vaccines, antibiotics, and other medical interventions are not responsible for the increase in lifespan and then decline immortality from infectious disease diseases. If the medical profession could systematically misinterpret and ignore key historical information, the question must be asked, “What else is ignored and misinterpreted today?” -Back cover summary This is a preowned book in good condition. There is a flaw on the front cover. Please see photos.
