ANNOUNCING: Finalist for Coveted International Book Excellence Award
New Spring Press is proud to announce The Maverick M.D.: Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez’s Fight for a New Cancer Treatment, is a FINALIST for the Book Excellence Award for the Biography category. Mary Swander’s book, The Maverick M.D., captures the wisdom and success of one of modern medicine’s most amazing persons. Her authorized biography of the late Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez M.D. is an impressive life resource book and should be one every person reads.
Founded in Toronto, Ontario, the Book Excellence Awards is an international book awards competition dedicated to recognizing both independent and traditionally published authors and publishers for excellence in writing, design and overall market appeal. Previous Winners and Finalists of the Book Excellence Awards have doubled their book sales, garnered attention from film producers, received distribution in bookstores and increased their visibility and media attention.
The Maverick M.D. is the story of how Dr. Gonzalez perfected the scientific theory behind Dr. William Donald Kelley’s work and put the nutritional enzyme protocol into practice. He spent nearly 30 years treating patients with the most serious conditions–from cancer to diabetes to lupus. The Maverick M.D. dramatizes Dr. Gonzalez’s backstory, his relentless fight for the truth and his never-ending battles with the forces that sought to squelch his research, keeping his healing discoveries in medicine from reaching the world. This 408-page biography portrays a man who fought for the acceptance of a nutritional cancer treatment in the halls of some of the most established U.S. medical institutions. Against intense opposition, Dr. Nick Gonzalez’s determination held up until the end–a brave scientist who developed a therapy that saves lives and promotes the healing of the human mind, body and spirit.
Praise for The Maverick M.D.: “With a captivating narrative style, Mary Swander takes the reader on an intense journey which was the life and work of Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez. Every physician and any layfolk interested in health should know of this man. If the medical science establishment was a true meritocracy, his name would be household. To the very end, he faced them all with resounding dignity and resolve, while continuing to heal the toughest cancer cases at an incomparable success rate.”
–Faiz Khan M.D., Dual Board Emergency/Internal Medicine, Former Chair of Medical Ethics and Founder of CityMD Urgent Care
