Event Information
About this event
Author Mary Swander will make a Zoom appearance to discuss her new book: The Maverick M.D. – Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez and His Fight for a New Cancer Treatment. This book tells the fascinating story of a courageous M.D. who took on the conventional medical system to put his alternative cancer treatment to the test. Learn how Gonzalez developed his nutritional theory based on his knowledge of sustainable agriculture and the research of Weston Price, Francis M. Pottenger and William D. Kelley. Understand the many obstacles placed in Gonzalez's path, and get a glimpse into the lives of the many patients he helped recover from devastating illnesses.
Special guest will be Mary Beth Pryor Gonzalez, the widow of Dr. Gonzalez, who spent hours with Swander, providing perspective and insight into the life of her husband. The editor of New Spring Press, she has worked tirelessly to assure a readership for her husband's work, the protocol he developed, and its theoretical background.
Read the book and come prepared to ask questions and to share your insights with others.
