寫的很引人入勝, 一幕幕跟看電影似的. 書裏主要講的是製藥公司如何像醫生, 公眾, 和公共衛生機構推銷藥物和治療疼痛的理念, 以及那些上癮的人們的悲慘遭遇, 以及一些有良知的醫生/律師/公共衛生機構官員對大公司的(遲遲不能成功)對抗. 醫生也是為瞭撈錢亂開藥, 隨便就開一個月的阿片類藥物, 也有根本不見病人就開藥, 然後讓病人去跟自己有聯係的藥房取藥. 感覺一切都要到有很多青少年成癮overdose而亡, 或者傢長吸毒無法照看孩子導緻children care homes人滿為患, 問題纔開始受到重視. 果然沒人會管那些藍領底層勞工 (而且他們都吸毒瞭製造業怎麼復蘇?). 全國範圍的epidemic感覺有文化因素, 比如無法忍受不社交而stay alone, 以及追求recreation.

A devastating portrait of the opioid epidemic, a uniquely American and catastrophically lethal tragedy born of Congressional neglect, amplified by corporate greed, and brutally exploited by illegal drug cartels.
The opioid epidemic is the deadliest drug crisis in American history; it results in ninety American deaths a day and has eviscerated communities across the country. It is a consequence of a healthcare system run as a business, one that prescribed drugs with unprecedented amounts of oxycodone to patients experiencing everything from toothaches to severe chronic pain. The practice created a culture of addiction in towns and cities from Florida to Maine and throughout Appalachia and the American West.
In American Fix, Chris McGreal outlines the three main stories of the opioid epidemic: first, the negligent policies that allowed the greed and corruption of big pharma to profit off the suffering of their patients and new evidence on the FDA's complicity in the matter; second, the widespread addiction that ravaged American towns and cities; and finally, the even more devastating arrival of the drug cartels who deliberately and catastrophically exploited the market for addiction that has been created.
Through the lives of doctors, addicts, policy-makers, pharmaceutical reps, and family members, McGreal tells two parallel stories: that of the rise of opioids in the healthcare system and the personal stories of those affected on the ground, joined in what a former member of the FDA has called "one of the greatest mistakes of modern medicine."
