that the promotion and sale of alternative therapies be subjected to the

more advanced research for cancer patients at two complementary and
alternative (CAM) clinics. The paper, entitled ``Assessment of Outcomes at
Alternative Medicine Cancer Clinics: A Feasibility Study, by Mary Ann
Richardson, Dr.Ph.; Nancy C. Russell, M.P.H.; Tina Sanders, M.S.; Robert
Barrett, Ph.D.; and Catherine Salveson, R.N., Ph.D., appears in The
