Ben Goldacre’s wise and witty bestseller, shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize, lifts the lid on quack doctors, flaky statistics, scaremongering journalists and evil pharmaceutical corporations. Since 2003 Dr Ben Goldacre has been exposing dodgy medical data in his popular Guardian column. In this eye-opening book he takes on the MMR hoax and misleading cosmetics ads, acupuncture and homeopathy, vitamins and mankind’s vexed relationship with all manner of ‘toxins’. Along the way, the self-confessed ‘Johnny Ball cum Witchfinder General’ performs a successful detox on a Barbie doll, sees his dead cat become a certified nutritionist and probes the supposed medical qualifications of ‘Dr’ Gillian McKeith.Full spleen and satire, Ben Goldacre takes us on a hilarious, invigorating and ultimately alarming journey through the bad science we are fed daily by hacks and quacks.

Ben Goldacre puts the $600bn global pharmaceutical industry under the microscope. What he reveals is a fascinating, terrifying mess. ***Now updated with the latest government responses to the book***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.The result: patients are harmed in huge numbers.Ben Goldacre is Britain’s finest writer on the science behind medicine, and `Bad Pharma’ is the book that finally prompted Parliament to ask why all trial results aren’t made publicly available – this edition has been updated with the latest news from the select committee hearings. Let the witty and indefatigable Goldacre show you how medicine went wrong, and what you can do to mend it.

Die Pharmaindustrie: durch und durch korrupt. Die Medizin: kaputtKein Arzt weiß genau, was er verschreibt. Kein Patient kennt sämtliche Nebenwirkungen seines Medikaments. Der Grund: Die Pharmaindustrie legt die eigenen Studien nicht offen – und die Zulassungsbehörden schützen die Konzerne dabei. Ben Goldacres Analyse einer kaputten Medizin, einer durch und durch korrupten Industrie ist messerscharf und bei allem kritischen Furor spannend und unterhaltsam.»So stellt sich der Laie den medizinischen Fortschritt vor: Pharmaforscher testen neue Wirkstoffe in unabhängigen Studien, und Zulassungsbehörden legen hohe Maßstäbe an, ehe sie eine neue Arznei auf den Markt lassen. Die Wirklichkeit sieht anders aus: ›Die Medizin ist kaputt‹, sagt der britische Arzt und Bestsellerautor Ben Goldacre in seinem Buch ›Bad Pharma‹ über das 600 Milliarden Dollar schwere Geschäft der Pillenindustrie. Ebenso fachkundig wie detailliert beschreibt er, wie Pharmaindustrie und Wissenschaftler negative Studienergebnisse verschweigen oder manipulieren, klinische Studien in Entwicklungsländern durchführen und das Verschreibungsverhalten der Ärzte beeinflussen. Goldacre liefert keine Verschwörungstheorien, sondern Kapitel für Kapitel anspruchsvolle Beweisführung.« (Der Spiegel über die englische Originalausgabe)»Goldacres Analyse der Unzulänglichkeiten klinischer Studien ist niederschmetternd. Jeder, der sich für das Pharmageschäft interessiert, sollte das Buch lesen.« Financial Times
