具体描述

Many have hailed the widespread use of generic drugs as one of the most important public-health developments of the twenty-first century. Today, almost 90 percent of our pharmaceutical market is comprised of generics, the majority of which are manufactured overseas. We have been reassured by our doctors, our pharmacists and our regulators that generic drugs are identical to their brand-name counterparts, just less expensive. But is this really true?

Katherine 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.

The story of generic drugs is truly global. It connects middle America to China, India, sub-Saharan Africa and Brazil, and represents the ultimate litmus test of globalization: what are the risks of moving drug manufacturing offshore, and are they worth the savings?

A decade-long investigation with international sweep, high-stakes brinkmanship and big money at its core, Bottle of Lies reveals how the world’s greatest public-health innovation has become one of its most astonishing swindles.

##优点是:1 故事精彩,特别是Ranbaxy部分 2 对仿制药的出现和问题的支出,在4+7时代尤其重要。缺点是:1 太多采访驱动,数据太少,导致面子太多里子不够 2 野心太大导致主线太散

##一个这么好的题材,被作者写得稀烂。故事非常散乱且冗长。有种所有我调查到的内容都要填进去的杂乱感。人物脸谱化,凡正面角色一定要讲到成长经历,父亲职业的影响,反面角色一定是生活奢迷,草菅人命,毫无道德可言。350字装不下我的吐槽。可能需要写一篇长评。。。。。。

##简直是触目惊心的一本书,4.5星,半星给写作的重复性打折掉。但是看到原本应该一丝不苟的制药业居然如此的藏污纳垢,药性与原厂药不能相比就不说了,篡改伪造数据也不说了,制药环境居然如此恶劣,而厂商以及质监局的态度又是如此的nonchalant,对待监察力度很弱而便宜仿制药需求又很大的第三世界的人命如此淡漠,相关人员只图暴利而不把民众的安全和性命当一回事,最后却也没有得到法律制裁的种种事情实在是让人发指!立马把家长吃的药赶快拿来查一下是不是也有质量不过关的问题。。。
