Follow the Science - Summary
Emmy Award-winning journalist Sharyl Attkisson investigates the pharmaceutical industry's practices, revealing how profit motives often overshadow patient welfare. The book exposes Big Pharma's manipulative tactics, industry collusion, and cover-ups while encouraging readers to question established healthcare narratives and make informed decisions about their health.
Key Ideas
Profit Over People
Pharmaceutical companies prioritize profit maximization over patient health by suppressing negative research findings, manipulating clinical trials, and downplaying side effects while aggressively marketing their products. The book documents the human cost of these practices through stories of affected individuals and communities.
The Media's Muzzle
Big Pharma uses its power and advertising dollars to control media narratives, suppress critical coverage, and promote favorable but misleading information, preventing the public from accessing objective information and making informed health decisions.
Challenging the 'Science Denier' Label
The book examines how the industry weaponizes the 'science denier' label to stifle genuine scientific debate and discourage critical thinking, emphasizing the importance of independent research and critical evaluation of information from authoritative sources.
FAQ's
This book is for anyone concerned about the pharmaceutical industry, healthcare, and the influence of corporations on scientific research and public health policy. It is particularly relevant for those who want to be more informed about the medications they take and the forces shaping healthcare decisions.
Not at all. The book advocates for responsible, ethical science and argues that true scientific inquiry requires scrutiny, debate, and transparency. It is critical of the pharmaceutical industry's manipulation of scientific research and information but ultimately encourages readers to be pro-science by thinking critically and demanding accountability.
Attkisson provides actionable steps readers can take to become more informed healthcare consumers, support independent research, and advocate for transparency and accountability within the pharmaceutical industry.
