This is one of the most eye-opening books I've read in years; from the open bribery of doctors, to the fact that big pharma almost never discovers new drugs (it's publicly funded government agencies and universities that do that), the moral bankruptcy of the big pharmas is shocking. <br/> <br/>A must read book. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/863212?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
