Title: Tape for Sale - Cheap!
Review: This is a single, relatively short cassette. It is NOT a reading from the book. It was taped while being delivered to a live audience.The doctor's goals to teach and inform were compromised by her needs to 'entertain' and establish rapport with the audience. There are multiple outbursts/interruptions as she elicited responses from the audience. They waste time. The producer did not modulate the volume, and the audience outbursts are often shockingly loud compared to the volume of the vocal presentation. I raised and lowered the volume throughout the tape trying to compensate.Dr. Northrup makes several references to information being presented to the audience via visual aids. That info is lost to those who are listening to the tape. If you have seen Dr. Northrup's presentations on talk shows or PBS you won't gain much if any additional information from this tape. Put your money into the book if you want to learn more. Sandy
