Big Pharma, Betrayal and Ben Goldacre

Feb. 27, 2013
In Ben Goldacre's new book, Bad Pharma: How Drug Companies Mislead Doctors and Harm Patients, he tackles the issues associated with the pharmaceutical industry. The biggest takeaway of the book may be that missing data can be killer and Goldacre goes on to delve into the world of pharmaceutical research, drugs and manufacturing. Much of Goldacre's criticisms are rather harsh, as the central focus of the book is antidepressants and what he perceives to be the misrepresentation of data and information.
