Harris Coulter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harris L. Coulter, PhD (October 8, 1932 - ) is a medical historian and lecturer who made significant contributions in many areas during his career regarding cancer, the dangers of vaccinations, by serving on numerous medical advisory panels and boards, and by shedding light on the conflict between the American Medical Association (AMA) and homeopathy. His fluency in German, French, Spanish, Latin, Russian, Hungarian, and Serbo-Croatian helped him communicate to a wide audience.
In 1969, Coulter earned his PhD from Columbia University, NY. His dissertation was entitled Political and Social Aspects of Nineteenth-Century Medicine in the United States: The Formation of the American Medical Association and its Struggle with the Homeopathic and Eclectic Physicians.
From 1965 to 1975, Coulter was the director of publications for the American Foundation for Homeopathy, and from 1983 to 1989, he served on the editorial board of the Journal of the American Institute of Homeopathy. Coulter was also an advisory board member of the Campaign Against Fraudulent Medical Research.
