By Peter Rost, M.D.
Peter Rost, M.D., is a former vice president of marketing for Pfizer, the world’s largest pharmaceutical company. Published in 2006, his book provides a highly damaging exposé of the drug industry and reveals illegal inducements to doctors to prescribe drugs; the marketing of drugs to children; fake accounting and other illegal and unethical activities.
Describing the American healthcare system as “utterly and completely sick,” Rost says that “our weakest citizens are paying the price, every day.”
A powerful testimony, Rost’s account of life as a drug company insider charges that American consumers are being manipulated by their healthcare system and that the manipulation encompasses every part of society, from scientists at the renowned National Institutes of Health (NIH) taking drug company money, to other government agencies, such as the FDA, which gets a large part of their funding directly from the drug industry.
