Description: |
Join us to discuss the fourth book we are reading this semester, Bottle of Lies: The Inside Story of the Generic Drug Boom, by Katherine Eban. OKatherine Eban’s Bottle of Lies exposes the deceit behind generic-drug manufacturing—and the attendant risks for global health. Drawing on exclusive accounts from whistleblowers and regulators, as well as thousands of pages of confidential FDA documents, Eban reveals an industry where fraud is rampant, companies routinely falsify data, and executives circumvent almost every principle of safe manufacturing to minimize cost and maximize profit, confident in their ability to fool inspectors. Meanwhile, patients unwittingly consume medicine with unpredictable and dangerous effects. We look forward to a lively and engaging discussion. Participation is required. |
