Dear Sir:
I enclose a Letter to the Editor, with the request that you publish it in the Journal of the American Medical Association
as soon as possible. It is a comment on the book review entitled Pauling and Vitamin C, by Franklin C. Bing, published in
the JAMA for 1 March 1971.
I am not objecting to the expression of opinion by the reviewer. I feel, however, that it is necessary that the erroneous
statements made in the review be corrected.
I may mention that I am shocked that you should publish a review containing such false and misleading statements.
I ask that you publish my enclosed Letter to the Editor without any changes or deletions.
