The Great American Drug Deal

"The Great American Drug Deal" by Peter Kolchinsky tackles the issue of unaffordable drug pricing that affects many Americans. It delves into the pharmaceutical industry's commitment to creating life-saving drugs that can eventually become inexpensive generics, while also exploring solutions for healthcare systems to make these drugs accessible for all patients. With compelling stories, Kolchinsky examines pressing questions such as why drugs are more expensive in America than elsewhere and how to prevent the next opioid crisis. The book offers a bold yet realistic approach for balancing innovation and affordability in the pharmaceutical industry.
