Did mercury in vaccines cause an epidemic of autism, ADD, ADHD, speech delay and other childhood disorders? Evidence of Harm: Mercury in Vaccines and the Autism Epidemic: A Medical Controversy (St. ’s Press, April 2005, $26.95 Hardcover, ISBN: 0-312-32544-0), by Kirby, is a disturbing, important book that examines both sides of this brewing controversy—the personal stories of the affected families and the unfolding political drama in the courts and halls of Congress. Evidence of Harm is essentially the story of a handful of parents with autistic children who, upon learning that their kids received levels of mercury in their vaccines that far exceeded Federal safety limits, set out to take on Big Business, Big Science and Big Government with a radical new theory on the cause. These parents have uncovered compelling evidence that vaccine mercury, in the form of the preservative Thimerosal, could very well have played a role in the disease, and their medical, scientific, legal, and political allies are getting closer to establishing their claim. Evidence of Harm explores both sides of this issue, which has pitted families and their allies against the federal government, public health agencies, medical academies, and powerful pharmaceutical giants. Kirby has been a professional journalist for 15 years. He has contributed to The New York Times and several national magazines, writing about many subjects including health, technology and politics.
