A Strong Remedy to a Weak Ethical Defence of Homeopathy.

David Shaw1.   

Abstract

In this article, I indicate and illustrate several flaws in a recent "ethical defence" of homeopathy. It transpires that the authors' arguments have several features in common with homeopathic remedies, including strong claims, a lack of logic or evidence, and no actual effect.
