Editorial Review:
Avoiding hyperbole while writing about a possible medical catastrophe is no easy task, but David Kirby has created a fine balance of investigative and personal detail in Evidence of Harm. Combining stories from the parents of autistic children with reports, speeches and studies from researchers, pediatricians and government officials, he creates a picture that is as terrifying as anything dreamed up by Hitchcock.
The topic at hand is determining whether high levels of organic mercury present in an inexpensive preservative used in vaccinations can cause either autism or autism-like symptoms. Kirby's in a delicate position, searching for the truth between frantic parents (he focuses on the founders of political action group Safe Mind) and the self-protective pharmaceutical industry (the author thanks the nameless person who placed a pro-Eli Lilly litigation rider into the Homeland Security Act of 2002). He's also honest enough of a reporter to admit to the temptation of deciding mercury is the culprit behind a range of disorders, even in light of some inconclusive test results. The ultimate truth isn't clear, and Kirby is direct about each of the reasons his sources have for their biased opinions.
While some of the straight research reports will likely to go over the head of anyone not well versed in the terminology, the book is never dull--there is a continual urgency in the material that resists pedantry. However undecided the experts, readers will likely land firmly in one angry camp or the other. Jill Lightner

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - GOOD INFORMATION HARD TO READ
I don't like how it was written. Very hard to read. I expected more facts rather then a story line. The book makes it hard to focus on the facts because your flipping back and forth between 10 different families and their stories. However, the information provided it very useful. Lots of research and facts. Very interesting.
Rating:  - A Bigger Concern Than Just Mercury in Vaccines
A must-read book for anyone who's interested in knowing what may cause autism in some children. Whether anyone believes Mercury causes Autism or not, the fact is it should never have been in vaccines where it's injected into tiny babies. Not only is mercury toxic, but so is aluminum, antifreeze and other toxic ingredients in vaccines, to name a few. Monkey/human tissues in vaccines can also alter the DNA's of our children. It's no wonder children are at such a high risk of having autism, ADHD, learning ... Read More
Rating: - Well, Dr. Carley & Other Scoffers?!
Well, well! The US Government has fought tooth and claw against the heroic efforts of thousands of families to obtain compensation for injuries to their young children that they believe were caused by mercury contamination from vaccines. And now, very recently, we learn that the Government has finally (and quietly) conceded a link between vaccines and autism-type disorders in some children, after assiduously and continuously denying precisely this for years. See the following more recent information by Mr. ... Read More
Rating:  - Major disinformation on the cause of autism
David Kirby is a disinformer who wrote this book to make people believe that autism is caused by mercury...thus, if the mercury is removed, the vaccines will be safe. A bigger lie has never been told; as the corruption of the immune system caused by injecting viruses directly into the blood stream causes all autoimmune diseases (of which autism is one) and cancer, in people and in pets.
My website has an interview of myself and David Kirby which you will find in the "Hall of Shame". Except as ... Read More
Rating: - A Must Read
All of us will be effected to some degree or another by this public health catastrophe. The carnage will continue to unfold as thousands upon thousands of these casualties grow into adult body's. What will become of these kids and how will they cope?
A trusting populace allowed a generation of kids to be poisoned. If only Dwight D Eisenhower would have warned us about the Pharmaceutical companies! This book will convince you to question authority! No shots, No school, No Kidding! Who are these people? ... Read More
