      A Compelling Expose of Sky-high Prices and Dirty Tricks Inside the Global Pharmaceutical Industry

      THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY IS BROKEN

      From the American hedge fund manager who drastically hiked the price of an AIDS pill to the children''s cancer drugs left intentionally to expire in a Spanish warehouse, the signs of this dysfunction are all around. A system built to drive innovation and improve patient care has been distorted to maximise profits.

      In Sick Money, the investigative journalist who exposed a billion-pound British price-hiking scandal goes inside the global battle over high drug prices. From secret deals to patients forced to turn to the black market, Billy Kenber reveals how medicines have become nothing more than financial assets. He offers a diagnosis of an industry in crisis - and a prescription for how it could be fixed.
