Dr Manu Kothari passes away

Prof (Dr) Manu Kothari (19 November 1935 - 16 October 2014) passed away today in Mumbai. He was a Professor Emeritus of Anatomy at the Seth GS Medical College, Mumbai.
He was a pioneer of new thoughts on Cancer and challenged President Nixon's call in 1971 to eliminate Cancer from the World. In fact, he wrote a book 'The Nature of Cancer' in 1973 exposing the myths and cruelties of US war against cancer. This book was later abridged as 'The Other Face of Cancer' whose foreword was written by none other than Ivan Illich.
Prof Kothari contributed his last article to 'Ekak Matra' for its 'Cancer: Onyo Bhabna' issue which is soon to come out.

We pay our homage to this Great Soul.
Here below are some of his excellent lectures on cancer, health & illness:
