Nation in Peril

Many aspects of life in Britain have deteriorated in my personal experience during the last century. The author has selected ten topics that are certainly not ‘what they were’ 100 years ago. Sadly, we are now rapidly losing many strengths of our very long history to the USA; our precious culture is being rapidly eroded by that of the US. Professor Cook blames this steep decline very largely on the ‘Brexit’ referendum.

Professor G C Cook FRCP, now in his nineties, has spent numerous years in “third world” countries, mostly in the wake of the British Empire. He has become aware that a vast amount of research – including that in medicine and nutrition  – remains to be done there. He has also had great experience of the now declining Tropical Medicine specialty.
