Wow - this is an intense but very important book! I work in health care and sometimes get wind of the malpractices in medicine production and selling. This book is very thorough, well researched and explains the current problems really well. I found it interesting and there are many examples of medicine I see my patients taking daily. I hope this book and others who have done similar research can change something about the sick system. Definitely recommended read!

Never has it been so important to delve into the tangled web behind the medicines and vaccines we all rely on. An amazing insight into the pharmacy business and very well researched. Amazing!

This book - a cross between economical and pharmaceutical non-fiction is extremely time sensitive. Most people live with high health and drug costs all over the world, and this book delves deep into why and how this is happening. I also appreciated the author including where the industry is going and what we can do to combat the unnecessarily high prices of prescriptions.

I can say I found the economical part of the book rather slow and hard to get through, while the pharma industry takes fascinating, infuriating, and important. The author stays balanced in sources and leaves his opinion out of it, while showcasing expert opinions that back up the empirical data presented.

This is definitely a book the pharmaceutical industry does not want you to read and act on and that is exactly why you should read it.
