Drugs, money and misleading evidence

Drugs, money and misleading evidence

Ppharmaceutical production

Corruption and the pharmaceutical industry

In their new book, child psychiatrist Jon Jureidini and philosopher Leemon McHenry dispute the assumption that all approved drugs and medical devices are safe and effective. They warn that when clinical science is hitched to the pharmaceutical industry’s dash for profits, the scientific method is undermined by marketing spin and cherry-picked data. Their proposed solution is inspired by philosopher of science Karl Popper: take drug testing out of the hands of manufacturers.
