Follow the Science: How Big Pharma Misleads, Obscures, and Prevails
by Sharyl Attkisson
Published Sep. 3, 2024

"This book will challenge your assumptions, open your eyes, and inspire you to take action. Through blatant lies, deep cover-ups, and high-level collusion with government and media, Big Pharma has continuously put profits over people with dangerous results. Now, with her signature investigative rigor and uncompromising commitment to the facts, Sharyl Attkisson takes readers on a shocking journey through the dark underbelly of the pharmaceutical industry and its history of scientific misconduct. This book includes exclusive, eye-opening evidence including:


The Nocebo Effect: When Words Make You Sick
by Michael Bernstein, Charlotte Blease, Cosima Locher & Walter Brown
Published Mar. 19, 2024

A nocebo effect is said to occur when negative expectations of the patient regarding a treatment cause the treatment to have a more negative effect than it otherwise would have. For example, when a patient anticipates a side effect of a medication, they can experience that effect even if the "medication" is actually an inert substance. Or, similarly, someone may fall ill after being told they were exposed to a deadly virus, even though there was no such virus.


The War on Ivermectin: The Medicine that Saved Millions and Could Have Ended the Pandemic
by Dr. Pierre Kory & Jenna McCarthy
Published June 6, 2023

"Although numerous studies and epidemiologic data have shown that millions of lives were saved globally with the systematic use of ivermectin, many more millions perished. This carnage was the direct result of what Dr. Kory eventually discovered to be the pharmaceutical industry's silent but deadly war on generic medicines and the corrupt, captured medical and media systems that allow it to continue. For anyone who thought Covid-19 was the enemy, Dr. Kory's book will leave no doubt that the true adversary in this war is a collective cabal of power-hungry elites who put profits over people and will stop at nothing in their quest for control."


Taking On Big Pharma: Dr. Charles Bennett's Battle
by Julius Getman & Terri LeClercq
Published Jan. 10, 2023

"Taking On Big Pharma exposes the unsettling relationship between the pharmaceutical industry and academia. The result of more than five years of research and hundreds of hours of interviews with scientists, academicians, and federal prosecutors, this is an unflinching look at how institutions, purportedly devoted to public health and education, can be corrupted for profit—from drug sales or research grants."


Pharmocracy II: How Corrupt Deals and Misguided Medical Regulations Are Bankrupting America - and What to do About It
by William Faloon
Published Dec. 7, 2017

"Our healthcare system is irretrievably broken, and now it is devastating the US financially. Pharmocracy II, like its predecessor, Pharmocracy, uncovers egregious FDA incompetence, abuse, and corruption. This is an agency that is serving its corporate clients, the big drug companies, not the public.

This book also shows how information about natural therapies from food and other natural sources is censored to support drug company profits. Over-regulation causes lifesaving medications to be delayed or suppressed altogether, and makes consumers pay inflated prices for FDA-approved therapies that are only minimally effective and often dangerous."


Pharmocracy: How Corrupt Deals and Misguided Medical Regulations Are Bankrupting America - and What to Do About It
by William Faloon
Published Sep. 16, 2011

"Our healthcare system is irretrievably broken, and now it is devastating the US financially. Pharmocracy uncovers egregious FDA incompetence and abuse, and shows how over-regulation causes lifesaving medications to be delayed or suppressed altogether, and makes consumers pay inflated prices for FDA-approved therapies that are only minimally effective and often dangerous. A free market approach to healthcare, Faloon argues, would spare Medicare and Medicaid from insolvency, while significantly improving the health of the American public."

How to Sell a Poison: The Rise, Fall, and Toxic Return of DDT
by Elena Conis
Published Apr. 12, 2022

"The story of an infamous poison that left toxic bodies and decimated wildlife in its wake is also a cautionary tale about how corporations stoke the flames of science denialism for profit.
 
The chemical compound DDT first earned fame during World War II by wiping out insects that caused disease and boosting Allied forces to victory. Americans granted it a hero's homecoming, spraying it on everything from crops and livestock to cupboards and curtains. Then, in 1972, it was banned in the US. But decades after that, a cry arose to demand its return.
 
This is the sweeping narrative of generations of Americans who struggled to make sense of the notorious chemical's risks and benefits. Historian Elena Conis follows DDT from postwar farms, factories, and suburban enclaves to the floors of Congress and tony social clubs, where industry barons met with Madison Avenue brain trusts to figure out how to sell the idea that a little poison in our food and bodies was nothing to worry about.
 
In an age of spreading misinformation on issues including pesticides, vaccines, and climate change, Conis shows that we need new ways of communicating about science - as a constantly evolving discipline, not an immutable collection of facts - before it's too late."


Silent Spring
by Rachel Carson
Published 1962

"Rarely does a single book alter the course of history, but Rachel Carson's Silent Spring did exactly that. The outcry that followed its publication in 1962 forced the banning of DDT and spurred revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water. Carson's passionate concern for the future of our planet reverberated powerfully throughout the world. As Carson reminds us, "In nature, nothing exists alone."
 
"Wonder and humility are just some of the gifts of Silent Spring. They remind us that we, like all other living creatures, are part of the vast ecosystems of the earth ... this is a book to relish: not for the dark side of human nature, but for the promise of life's possibility." - from the Introduction"
