> it explains how bad(For consumers) things happen due to systems not conspiracies That's one of the things I like most about Goldacre - he's very calm and measured compared to many people involved in these debates. To anyone that liked Bad Pharma: I can really recommend "Bad Science" as well, which is similar but broader. In particular it has some very interesting information about "alternative" medicine and its relationship to "big pharma". He also has a great blog: http://www.badscience.net/ http://www.badscience.net/ and occasionally gives talks - do go, if you ever get a chance to hear him speak.
