Fascinating, isn't it? I have read both of his books.

As a general rule, I presume someone who makes a lot of money out of publishing a book, which knows stuff regular mainstream science doesn't may be more interested in making money than he is in healing people. (Dr Constantini would be a fine example of exactly the opposite - dedicated to caring, not lining his pockets)

Of course, that doesn't mean the subject they make fantastic claims about is entirely false, but the prospects for missed miracles generally is. Just a couple of thoughts, from people who know a bit, and found it didn't add up
