书籍简介:
'Bad Science' hilariously exposed the tricks that quacks and journalists use to distort science, becoming a 400,000 copy bestseller. Now Ben Goldacre puts the $600bn global pharmaceutical industry under the microscope. What he reveals is a fascinating, terrifying mess. Doctors and patients need good scientific evidence to make informed decisions. But instead, companies run bad trials on their own drugs, which distort and exaggerate the benefits by design. When these trials produce unflattering results, the data is simply buried. All of this is perfectly legal. In fact, even government regulators withhold vitally important data from the people who need it most. Doctors and patient groups have stood by too, and failed to protect us. Instead, they take money and favours, in a world so fractured that medics and nurses are now educated by the drugs industry. Patients are harmed in huge numbers. Ben Goldacre is Britain's finest writer on the science behind medicine, and 'Bad Pharma' is a clear and witty attack, showing exactly how the science has been distorted, how our systems have been broken, and how easy it would be to fix them.

书友短评:
@ GW_Parables 本书初版那年,我离开医院加入制药工业界。在医院、制药企业工作的十余年间,我耳闻目睹医药行业的许多乱象。但时至今日,这本书仍使我感到深深挫败。即使我一直看到问题在改善,但依旧不足以令我反驳作者“医药行业存在系统、广泛的混乱”观点,而这种现象在中国尤甚。每一位抱持崇高理想进入医药圈的朋友,或许都应当读一下本书,了解现状后作出自己的选择。最后请容我抱怨一句,作者写得太冗长了——但丝毫不影响其论证过程。【 本书初版那年,我离开医院加入制药工业界。在医院、制药企业工作的十余年间,我耳闻目睹医药行业的许多乱象。但时至今日,这本书仍使我感到深深挫败。即使我一直看到问题在改善,但依旧不足以令我反驳作者“医药行业存在系统、广泛的混乱”观点,而这种现象在中国尤甚。每一位抱持崇高理想进入医药圈的朋友,或许都应当读一下本书,了解现状后作出自己的选择。最后请容我抱怨一句,作者写得太冗长了——但丝毫不影响其论证过程。【 Did a better job at explaining evidence based medicine than my entire post grad degree on evidence based medicine. That is despite the writer kept on sayingt this book is popscience himself. It's not perfect, as Goldacre frequently falls into anecdotal low level evidence, as well as confusing causation-correlation, still a decent book. @ Keegan 影响我事业价值观最大的一本书 @ Lisabracadabra 白天写PPT的我:我们引领创新/加速新药上市/提升可及性/改善患者生活/助力健康中国 真是高估了资本主义社会,看到ghostwriter能在JAMA出现我就惊了,这都只是冰山一角,医疗系统的问题真是太多太多了
