I have to say, I find the use of the word "cure" to be close to being offensive.
Is it really? and if not, it's the sort of thing that should get them sued in my opinion.
I agree with what others have said in that the book is most likely a collection of freely available information. I would even say that it could very well be helpful. But even if it was worth the $ just as a reference material, the aggressive manner in which its promoted leaves me with a foul taste in my mouth and is clear evidence of the motivations of the creators. *sigh*

Your neighbor's arrogance is certainly stunning, but please tell me you're not mocking the serious study of art?

Please don't misunderstand me. I admire art in all forms and anyone that has that gift I envy and encourage to take to the highest level possible. In fact this particular fellow is brilliant and a wonderful teacher.
I just do not appreciate having to address him as Dr. just because he has his doctorate. We sit on the porch and drink cold beer together for pete's sake.
To me there is a difference between a medical doctor and someone that has their doctorate in art. My sister in law has her doctorate in art but she doesn't request that anyone call her doctor, thank goodness.
Please feel free to all jump in if you feel I am wrong here, as I do not have one of those thingies. 
Here's to the serious study of anything one chooses!

I did misunderstand you, but I understand better now. This is what made me think you were mocking:

I play in a band with three PhD's, and I hardly ever address them as "doctor." Unless we're goofing around. And I find that they address each other as "doctor" far more often than I do. I guess they've earned the right. I, however, don't usually call anyone "doctor" unless they're MY doctor.

There are lots of Drs in my family from my dad's side of the family, but only one of them is MD. None of them is referred as Dr during family gatherings, but only the MD one cares about the title in guestion anyway.
Back in here the Finnish language offers options how to avoid the similar problem with the Dr title, because the word "tohtori" (which can be used for MDs in spoken language) is usually used for those with doctorate no matter what the specific topic is about, but the word "lääkäri" (means doctor) is used from MDs only.
