Quality CAM Texts

by Tammy, FNP/GNP Platinum Member

Hi,

I'm a MSN-FNP student looking for a text book source of best evidence regarding CAM therapies, preferably from a disease entity approach. I'm specifically looking for texts that incorporate RCT's and meta analysis reviews documenting utility, safety and efficacy of treatements to incorporate into the family practice setting.

Any suggestions?

I have a book by Georgia Decker that has peer-reviewed information on many CAM subjects. You can contact me at I also have books by a local Phd nursing instructor by the name of Dr. Martha Libster. She has some excellent resources.
