Rabid Dogs in the East

by Bruce Vaughan

Overview

This book recounts the history of the chiropractic profession in Hong Kong during the past 50 years, from early beginnings to the hard-fought campaign for full recognition under the law--now won.
It presents a heartwarming tale of how loyalty to your principles and unwavering determination can triumph over the opposition of powerful vested interests. It is also written with unusual clarity, balance, wisdom and humor because the author, Dr. Bruce Vaughan, is not only the founding President of the Hong Kong Chiropractors' Association and Past President of the World Federation of Chiropractic, but also a published writer of fiction with an excellent command of the English language.
It carries my firm recommendation. In these pages you will find history from a knowledgeable historian, and a fascinating tale of struggle and success from a gifted storyteller. The book speaks not only to chiropractors and other stakeholders in the health care system, but anyone interested in a story about how to set goals and achieve them.
