Description

Dr. Wiley sat down at the age of 84 to compile his many notes to start the process of writing this book. Both of Dr. Wiley’s books were chosen by Dr. Lee to be the first publications by The Lee Foundation For Nutritional Research. Dr. Wiley’s role as the first Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry (currently known as FDA) was a monumental role from 1906-1912 and he was a man of integrity, competence, and diligence who was appointed to exactly the right post at exactly the right time. The “Pure Food Law” was enacted at his behest. This book is a narrative of how the politicians and special interests ignored the public interest and set in motion changing the Bureau of Chemistry (FDA) to comply with special interests and lobbyists wishes. Dr. Wiley chose to write this manuscript at the end of his life because he recognized the explosive nature of what he had to tell. Author: Harvey W. Wiley, M.D. 266 pages
