‘I loved this book - a forensic exploration of alternative medicine, the dangers of health misinformation and those who weaponise it, and the human side of loving someone who was vulnerable to the trap. Wormhole is a great read, but has never been more crucial than this political moment.' -- Hannah Ferguson What a read! Hannah McElhinney has written a gripping page-turner about health misinformation, the wellness industry and Western medicine’s strengths and weaknesses. With compassion, McElhinney traces her cousin’s fatal descent down the health conspiracy wormhole that led to a deadly and unneeded treatment in Malaysia. The book sensitively addresses the suffering of those with undiagnosed symptoms while confronting the dangerous rise of health conspiracy theories. McElhinney poses urgent questions about how society should respond to health misinformation while acknowledging medicine’s shortcomings in the way it treats patients with complex chronic diseases. I highly recommend this excellent read. -- Gabrielle Jackson * <I>The Guardian</I> *
