  5. Ulett, George A.: Acupuncture, Magic, and Make-Believe
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2003
    Traditional Chinese acupuncture is an archaic procedure of inserting needles through the skin over imaginary channels in accord with rules developed from pre-scientific superstition and numerological beliefs. New research has replaced this mystical sham medical procedure with a simple evidence-based no-needle treatment that stimulates motor points and nerve junctures and induces gene-expression of neurochemicals and activates brain areas important for healing. This is a scientifically based alternative to the previous metaphysical theories and magical rituals.
  6. United Tendency: The New Stage in Canada-U.S. Relations
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1973
    The authors assert that Canada is an integral part of the global capitalist imperialist system. As the global expansion of this system reaches its limits, inter-imperialist competition becomes more pronouced. A crisis in the international monetary system is likely to result from global inflationary trends. This, in turn, will produce limited recessions of the imperialist economy. These developments will have profound impacts on the dynamics of class relations in Canada.
