These chapters  based on his own experience and on researched fact  which were emailed each week to his editors at Random House  are both personal and poignant  hard hitting and controversial  tackling the issues raised by alternative medicine with total candour and his usual wit. The second half of this book features some of the best of Diamonds writing  including a selection of emails to colleagues and friends  articles from \"The Times\" and the \"Jewish Chronicle\" and other publications  together with excerpts from his final notebook. For seven years he wrote an immensely popular weekly column in \"The Times\" which  following his diagnosis with cancer  was given over to following the progress of the disease. As well as gaining him a Columnist of the Year award  it resulted in an avalanche of mail from thousands of his readers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45276758081589,"sku":"ByrdShop_0099428334","price":63.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780099428336.jpg?v=1780562199","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/snake-oil-9780099428336","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
