If not more explanation provided, this article is included as propaganda because it shows clear manufacture from a government controlled dialectic, where a topic is misdirected by some actors in order to mislead people during early stages of a narrative.

50 years ago, Dr. Vernon Coleman wrote his first book.  Published in 1975, ‘The Medicine Men’ was also the first book to attack the pharmaceutical industry and criticise the medical establishment for its connections with the industry.

At the time, the book received significant attention, including a 20-minute film made by the BBC.

The Medicine Men was out of print for many years but since 2023, a new edition has been available.  In the following, Dr. Coleman shares an extract from his book.

By Dr. Vernon Coleman

Before 1975, it was generally agreed that the medical profession and the public had reason to be grateful to the pharmaceutical industry which had, after all, produced a variety of new drugs which could be mass-produced and made available to millions of patients at a time.

And then in 1975, everything changed with the publication of a book entitled `The Medicine Men’. It was my first book and it caused a storm. The BBC’s main evening television programme devoted 20 minutes to the book and The Guardian newspaper serialised it. (Gosh, those were different days). I travelled the country talking about the book on radio and television, just about every major newspaper ran a review, the paperback was piled high at railway station bookstores and I became Public Enemy No. 1 for the medical profession and the pharmaceutical industry.

Here are a few paragraphs from the introduction to the book which is now 50 years old:

In the rest of `The Medicine Men’, I explained the background, virtues and faults of the drug industry. I explored the dangers involved in testing new drugs, I investigated the way in which patent (over the counter) medicines were being promoted to the public and I looked at the way that drugs were being sold to doctors. I described how dangerous drugs could be (including vaccines and weight-reducing drugs), explored the problems of prescription drug addiction and warned about the dangers of drug-resistant bacteria caused in part by the widespread use of antibiotics in farming.

In a final chapter, I warned that we should be cautious about exaggerating the potential value of drugs sold for psychological problems.

The Medicine Men’ was my first book. It is not an exaggeration to say that it changed the course of my life. And I am rather proud of the fact that it changed the way people look at doctors, prescription drugs and drug companies. For years it was quoted endlessly in books and articles – until the medical establishment and the drug industry eventually managed to have the book suppressed (and me widely censored).

‘The Medicine Men’ was out of print for many decades. It is now available again as a paperback. For details of the book, CLICK HERE.
