"A thoroughly researched and
well-written account of the disease's controversial history." -Jane
Brody, New York Times
"Pam Weintraub, veteran science writer, weaves personal narrative with
hard-hitting investigative journalism to bring the underground epidemic of
Lyme and other tick-borne diseases up from under the radar." -Rebecca
Wells, author of Ya-Yas in Bloom and Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya
Sisterhood.
"In CURE UNKNOWN, Pamela Weintraub has produced both the definitive
book about Lyme disease and associated disorders and a survivor's account
of a grueling medical odyssey...This is an important and unforgettable
book, destined to make a lasting contribution to the field of investigative
health journalism." -Kaja Perina, editor in chief of Psychology
Today
"I sometimes wonder if the only investigative writers who will possess
the necessary temerity to remove the white gloves and tackle these putative
experts to the ground will be those, like Weintraub and the late Randy
Shilts, whose personal experience demands that they follow the rocky trail
that leads to the truth." -Hillary Johnson, author of Osler's
Web: Inside the Labyrinth of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic
"CURE UNKNOWN is the most exciting book of the year. It sets a new bar for the patient
tell-all; it is laid out with superb intellectual rigor, does not spare on technical details,
but is also ...a potboiler and page-turner, the kind of
deeply addictive read that led many of us to begin writing in the first place.
—Caitlin Rothermel, MA, MPHc, American Medical Writers Association
"Pamela Weintraub's book is compelling, clear and troubling." -Patti
Adcroft, editorial director of Discover magazine
"An amazing read ...it really made me understand more about the history and progression of Lyme diease research. Really engaging. I couldn't put the book away.
The language is beautiful, and she nails every point so efficiently." -Les Hallerstrom, director of The Shipping News and Chocolat
"Millions suffering from symptoms of a mysterious disease need suffer
confusion and loss no longer. If you want to know the real story behind
Lyme disease and how to find your way back to health, read this book."
-Mark Hyman, MD, author of the New York Times bestseller, UltraMetabolism.
"Science journalism at its best." --Amiram Katz, MD, Clinical
Faculty, Neurology Department, Yale School of Medicine
