Alternative
Medicine Online
Americans

numbers, according to studies released by the Journal of the American
Medical Association in November 1998. This website includes a database
with 180,000 citations on everything from acupuncture to music therapy
to yoga. And it's from an organization you can rely on--the National
Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine at the National
Institutes of Health.
Computers
for Learning
In the
