内容紹介

Hailed by John le Carré as "an act of courage on the part of its author" and singled out for praise by the leading medical journals in the United States and the United Kingdom, The Body Hunters uncovers the real-life story behind le Carré’s acclaimed novel The Constant Gardener and the feature film based on it.

"A trenchant exposé . . . meticulously researched and packed with documentary evidence" (Publishers Weekly), Sonia Shah’s riveting journalistic account shines a much-needed spotlight on a disturbing new global trend. Drawing on years of original research and reporting in Africa and Asia, Shah examines how the multinational pharmaceutical industry, in its quest to develop lucrative drugs, has begun exporting its clinical research trials to the developing world, where ethical oversight is minimal and desperate patients abound. As the New England Journal of Medicine notes, "it is critical that those engaged in drug development, clinical research and its oversight, research ethics, and policy know about these stories," which tell of an impossible choice being faced by many of the world’s poorest patients—be experimented upon or die for lack of medicine.

Disturbingly relevant.

2015年9月27日 - (Amazon.com)

Amazonで購入

This is a deeply disturbing trek through the history and contemporary practices of the drug industry's never ending quest to sate an insatiable thirst for an endless supply of disempowered and exploitable bodies for the medical experiments that produce drugs for wealthy nations. A must read.

Needed a better writer

Really a hard slog to get through. The book is written in a very dry and boring way although the information is important.

Effective communication?

2010年11月22日 - (Amazon.com)

Amazonで購入

I try to stay current with both lay and professional literature concerning the ethics of biomedical research because I work in the field of clinical research myself. In her book Sonia Shah pulls together data from other publications and interviews, her original contribution being mostly the negative rhetoric which does not allow the reader even to form an unbiased opinion. I therefore have to question whether this is truly the most effective way to communicate some of the important messages in her book as she just risks putting a lot of people off, especially those who might have benefited from the book. I kept reading despite the rhetoric and actually managed to gain new perspectives on a number of topics on which I previously had a pretty firm position. I can only hope that others in the field do as well and that Sonia might find a style in the future that transcends bias and fear mongering and speaks to the important messages and (research) audience that should hear them.

Bold Expose without Sensationalism

2006年8月17日 - (Amazon.com)

In a remarkably bold 'report', the lurking dangers of recent trends in clinical trials through contract research organizations is well presented. Without adopting an obvious higher moral ground nor using a broad brush to paint all of Big Pharma as pure evil (as some recent books on Big Pharma have done), the author focuses purely on the issue of clinical trials. Using recent examples from various companies (all familiar names to the average reader), the author poses interesting ethical questions regarding the "use" of patients in developing countries. In a series of interesting observations, the author explains why it is more "economical" and "practical" for drug companies to perform the FDA-required trials using measures such as "events" (number o f deaths during a particular number of days, or n'th death). While the bulk of the book is devoted to examples ranging from India, Latin America, and Africa to discuss the modalities of clinical trials and raise pertinent questions, the conclusion of the book is not very substantial. However, the author does point out that drugs should be seen as "social goods" and not mere new products; thus the means of developing them should be fair. Point well-made. A must read for anyone in the medical/pharmaceutical industry, investor, or a patient who uses any medicine.

A Must-Read

2007年5月10日 - (Amazon.com)

The Body Hunters by Sonia Shah is a fascinating look at modern drug trials. The FDA prefers drugs to be tested against placebos to show effectiveness. Americans and Western Europeans don't want to risk taking placebos. What to do, what to do? Pharmaceutical companies, instead of offering (usually more expensive) alternatives to the FDA, cheerfully administer placebos to mothers with AIDS and children with diptheria. Big Pharma argues, "Hey, these people are impoverished and wouldn't be getting anything at all if normally, what's the big deal? At least half of them are getting the drugs!" Read the book to read Shah's persuasive argument as to "what's the big deal." Not just an angry voice, she offers real, practical solutions to the problem.

I also enjoyed that the book provides a brief history of experimentation on human subjects. Hits on Tuskeegee, experimentation in Nazi concentration camps, and a few other infamous examples. Gives a rundown of the explosion of "lifestyle" drugs like Viagra and Prozac. (Did you know impotence and depression were hardly ever diagnosed prior to the introduction of these drugs? Are current levels of impotence and depression accurate???)

My only quibble is that Shah's writing is not the best. She is in desperate need of a thesaurus. People in the book tend to be "aghast" and "outraged."

This book is timely and important. Just yesterday I read in my local paper an article on a new STD drug found to slow the onset of AIDS. I read with baited breath...sure enough, the trial was conducted in Burkina Faso, and half the subjects were given placebos. The subjects were improverished women with HIV.
