Angry Dr. Stein tried to advertise here.

I'm glad his posting was removed. We normally don't allow advertising in this forum. Thank you moderators!

The topic is important but his posting here was self serving. If he is sincere in helping rather than making money, he should become active in this forum anonymously, like other physicians here and not include a sales pitch.

The Amazon page is http://www.amazon.com/Lonely-Patient...5892016&sr=1-1 . Melody included trade reviews, hardly unbiased. Reader reviews are mixed. In Dr. Stein's posting here (under the user name "Lonely Patient"), he claimed the publisher is Harper Collins, but the publisher stated in the Amazon page is William Morrow.

The topic of isolation and fear has been powerfully addressed in many threads in this and other forums. People here who only want to help and not stand to make a buck from sales should be the one's who promote what they've found useful, not people who stand to profit financially.
