This Week's Letters

A selection of views on alternative medicine is presented: "[W]e in conventional medicine can learn much from indigenous healers and healing systems. Some of the most important lessons involve the importance of time with the patient and quality of rapport." "What is objectionable in scientific medicine is reliance on anecdotal declarations rather than on facts." "The public's understanding of science is being dangerously undermined by the rise of 'integrated medicine.'" "Investigating the role that these psychosomatic links play in the outcome of alternative medicine remedies...could be...beneficial to scientific medicine." And at the other end of the scale (of the universe), recent measurements of cosmic emissions at near infrared wavelengths and the implications of those measurements for galaxy formation and evolution are discussed.
