Amy Linda Lansky (born 1955) is an American author, computer scientist, and homeopath, noted for having written Impossible Cure: the Promise of Homeopathy.

Life

Lansky grew up in Buffalo, New York. She received a B.A. from University of Rochester in 1977 and a M.S. (1979) and Ph.D. (1983) in Computer Science from Stanford University.

She is married to Steven M. Rubin; they have two children.

Homeopathy

In 1998, Lansky left the field of Computer Science to study homeopathy. Homeopathy is a pseudoscience and has not been shown to be effective in treating any disease[1] This transition was prompted by her perceived success at using homeopathy to "cure her son of Autism."[2]

In 2003, she published Impossible Cure: The Promise of Homeopathy ({{ISBN|0-9727514-0-8}}). This book is now used as a textbook in homeopathy schools and is cited in a number of other books on alternative health.{{citation needed|date=September 2016}}
