Dr. Marcia Angell says that doctors and government are acting as double agents for the drug industry. She also provides many inside secrets behind the relationship between government and the drug industry.
Dr. Angell writes frequently in professional journals and the popular media on a wide range of topics, particularly medical ethics, health policy, the nature of medical evidence, the interface of medicine and the law, care at the end of life, and the relations between industry and academic medicine.
Her two books for the public, Science on Trial: The Clash of Medical Evidence and the Law in the Breast Implant Case, W. W. Norton & Company, 1996, and The Truth About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It, Random House, 2004 (a New York Times business bestseller) have been widely read and critically acclaimed.
In addition, Dr. Angell is co-author, with Dr. Stanley Robbins and, later, Dr. Vinay Kumar, of the first three editions of a standard textbook, Basic Pathology. She has also written chapters in several books dealing with ethical issues.
In this candid interview with Christine Mitchell, Dr. Angell discusses the progress that has been made in many of these issues, and the setbacks that have kept others in play.
