The Health Seekers' Yearbook

[From Chapter One: The Declaration of Health Independence] "Since 1823, across the Land of America, a little-noticed, little-heard-of, underground, grassroots Health Revolution has been spreading. I call it a "grassroots" movement, because it travels from person-to-person by way of the written and spoken word and through the living example of the individual. I call it a "revolution" because it shows The People a revolutionary, new "health mentality"--how to get well and stay well without drug and doctor dependency and without disease-dealing "goods" and dis-services. And, finally, I call it a "grassroots revolution" because such a health care system, adopted by the millions throughout The Country, would certainly cause a much needed upheaval in our American democracy today on all levels: social, cultural, political, and economic. Certain power groups, that is, who are profiting for The Disease Industry and The Medical Mentality in our Sweet Land of Liberty would surely topple if our grassroots get a firm grip in the soil of the collective American mind. So when this "Great GetWell GrassRoots American Health Revolution" does burst forth across The Land to light up the skies darkened by suffering, it will be all the better for a democractic America and all the worse for The Disease Industrialists."
