Title: Lack of science, lots of snake oil
Review: Question: Where are the results of the peer-reviewed, randomized, controlled, double-blind studies?Answer: There aren't any!!This book is the equivalent of getting the cart before the horse. If it's so effective, then let's have the scientific evidence that shows its efficacy. Most books written by psychologists are written on the basis of the result of years of scientific research that use accepted research methods. This book is written on the "promise" of studies that might be done "someday" and nothing but excuses for why there are yet to be any proper studies. Sorry, but I don't have time or money to waste on "promises" as there are many, many promises that never come to fruition. At this point, this promise isn't science. It's snake oil. The funniest part is a pilot study would be sooooo simple to conduct, which would then either make way for more research or lay the matter to rest, if only there were a scientist in the room!
Is the review positive or negative?
