follow what notions that were considered "cool."
Though I doubt that "cool" was the word used to
describe these notions they were still there in
some form or another. One of the greatest farces
ever committed in the name of these popular
perceptions was medicine. At that time, medicine
that was on the cutting edge seem to have always
involved some sort of noxious chemical or a
typically atrocious diet. Not to mention the fact
that ninety-nine perce...

Physical And Mental Genetic Engineering
1,878 words
During the past decade, genetic engineering has
been a very controversial issue facing our world
that ultimately questions our power as humans to
control nature. Genetic engineering has many
potential benefits, such as curing all diseases,
growing more food, and altering our genes, but
these advantages also cause some disadvantages,
such as overpopulation, ecological, ethical, and
social issues, which all must be assessed before
we advance any further in this field. We should
definitely move ahe...

Conventional Medicine Side Effects

Samuel Hahnemann, a brilliant German medical
doctor and chemist, developed the science of
homeopathy at the end of the 18 th century. He was
responding, in part, to his concern that more
people were dying from medical treatments than
from their diseases. Hahnemann believed that the
purpose of medical therapy should be to restore
health quickly, gently and permanently in the
least harmful manner without toxic side-affects or
the suppression of symptoms which would only
return. His work and princi...
