Hello,

 

After eight months of meaning to get around to Joining IASTAM, today I

finally took the time.

 

My background is varied working 25 years as a freelance journalist/travel

writer racking up sales to more than a dozen newspapers including The Boston

Sunday Globe also the press group UPI and several trade magazines. Not

content with that I formed my own publishing company and for six years

published newsletters, newspapers and books. I also became a private pilot

and did aerial photography and search and rescue to support my flying habit.

It was during this time that my interest in alternative medicine began,

first with homeopathy and then chinese medicine and now ayurveda. I

currently hold an MD in Alternative Medicine (India) and a Diploma in

Homeopathic Medicine (London) I am currently working on a Ph.D (AM) project

on integrated medicine (allopathic, ayurvedic, TCM, homeopathy, etc.) with

the result being a malaria field treatment guide for rural health workers

and lay people. In my spare time I study ayurveda. I am now retired and can

devote my time to something more worthwhile than golf.

 

I would appreciate any help ISTAM members can provide in the way of internet

sites, books and people of interest in combating malaria. I am particularly

interested in the experience of practitioners in the use of

alternative/traditional medicines, positive and negative, in the treatment

of malaria.

 

Thank your help and I look forward to being a contributing member of the

group.
