Media reviews

Praise for Bad Pharma

"Goldacre uncovers a cesspool of corrupt practices designed to sell useless or dangerous drugs to an unsuspecting public. . . . A smart, infuriating diagnosis of the rotten heart of the medical-industrial complex." - Publishers Weekly

"A scathing critique of the modus operandi of drug research. . . . Bad Pharma could very well be the book that initiates a game-changing global rethink of what we expect from medicine." - Globe and Mail
