The main purpose of this section is to enable institutions, other than the principal host institution, to invite these visitors to spend some time with them. We would ask, however, that anyone wishing to issue such an invitation to a visitor do so in cooperation with the listed contact for enquiries. This will ease the contact's task of coordinating the visit as a whole. Please send details of visitors to your department to the Editor of the Gazette Details about each visitor are presented in the following order: name of visitor; home institution; whether accompanied; dates of visit; principal host institution; principal field of interest; contact for enquiries; comments.

19. Some Notes On Quackery success of astrology is due to the failures of astronomy. underground; participationin the laetrile movement (Markle) soc Sci American Medical Assoc., 1993. http://www.ncahf.org/articles/o-r/quackery.html

Article Index NCAHF Home Page Some Notes on Quackery William T. Jarvis, Ph.D. Webster's Dictionary defines quackery as "the actions or pretensions of a quack," and a quack as "a pretender to medical skills he does not possess." Quack is short for "quacksalver" [1] meaning literally to quack "like a duck about his 'salves' and remedies." [2] The duck symbolizes quackery because it makes a lot of noise about nothing. A congressional study defined a quack as "Anyone who promote medical schemes or remedies known to be false, or which are unproven, for a profit."[3] Quackery is as quackery does, and the defining behavior of quackery is promotionalism . To promote is "to contribute to the growth and prosperity of; to present for public acceptance through advertising and publicity." Advertising is less pernicious than publicity because it is recognizable as a sales vehicle. Publicity generally passes as being noncommercial information, but publicity about quackery is a form of hidden advertising. Publicity abuse has been dubbed flackery [4] the actions of a flack : one who provides publicity; a press agent.
