Pharmaphobia

How the Conflict of Interest Myth Undermines American Medical Innovation

Beschreibung

While plenty can be said about the dysfunction of our health care system, rarely do business and private players in health care innovation get a good rap. This book takes on skeptics of the partnership between the medical community, political groups, and private businesses, by illustrating how such cooperation can result in world-class innovation and health care delivery.
