Bad Pharma is out in the US and Canada on 5th Feb, which is extremely good news (sorry about the delay, floods and hurricanes apparently..). I’ll be doing a few public lectures in various places, alongside media stuff and other things, there’s a list of open ones below.
If you’re a US podcaster or blogger and you want to chat about bad behaviour in the pharma industry then do please email the three of us (Brian.Gittis@fsgbooks.com ben@badscience.net zross@unitedagents.co.uk).
Also: in the UK I’ve done a gazillion talks, and the most fun things always come from random people. So if from the list below it looks like I’m passing through your town and you want me to do a talk in your university, a pub, or an event, or you think there’s someone I should meet, a campaigner, an academic, a journalist, then please contact jglover@randomhouse.com for Canada, and Brian.Gittis@fsgbooks.com for the US. Do also cc me, ben@badscience.net, and we’ll try to fit it in around the various bits of other work while I’m out there.
Cheers!
You can buy the US edition of Bad Pharma here.
