Details

"This dramatic story of science for sale is told unassumingly, from an intimate, personal viewpoint, replete with courtroom cross-examinations, mordant observations about individuals, and dreaming fantasies. Marino is engaged in a personal quest, and he reveals his thoughts in a way few scientists have dared. He is indeed a seeker of the truth, about electromagnetic fields but also about his own life. His story is both disturbing and uplifting."

- Brian Martin, Professor of Social Sciences.

 

"People whose lives have been touched by cancer of other medical calmities donate generously to the agencies which promise a "cure". Yet the agencies often care more about maintaining their own life-style and the polluting military-industrial complex which funds it, that they do about finding "cures". Going Somewhere uncovers the insanity of this system designed to hide the truth and reward the polluter rather than the scientist trying to improve the public health. Every young researcher will have to decide between truth and "easy street", and this is a must-read to warn them about the difficult choices ahead."

-Rosalie Bertell, Physicians for Humanitarian Medicine
