Synopsis
New York Times journalist Melody Peterson launches a scathing fusillade against the unethical practices of the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry. She exposes the marketing ploys, phony diseases, and doctor manipulation and bribery that fuel the skyrocketing medical and health insurance costs-and she demands widespread reforms. This is a powerfully argued, meticulously researched, and outrage-inducing book that should be talked about for a long time.
