Alternative Medicine: The Evidence (2006)

The definitive BBC Series produced in conjunction with The Open University, which attracted over 7.5 million viewers per episode. For thousands of years, what we now think of as Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) was the only medicine; now, traditional cures are being treated with a fresh respect. In this series of programmes Professor Kathy Sykes embarks on a quest to quantify just how successful a range of alternative therapies can actually be and why science is starting to respond to these centuries-old remedies.
