Reviews

A must read for anyone interested in the relationship between drug pricing, regulation, and its impact on public health.' Sonia K. Katyal, Chancellor's Professor of Law, University of California, Berkeley, Advance priase: 'An important book and a compelling read. The authors show how pharmaceutical companies have twisted a law designed to protect invention into a regulatory nightmare that only protects profits.' Mark A. Lemley, William H.

Synopsis
The cost of pharmaceuticals in the United States has continued to skyrocket, leaving many people without access to lifesaving medications. In their new book, Feldman and Frondorf explore the complex mix of strategies used to create barriers to generic competition in the US pharmaceutical market., While the shockingly high prices of prescription drugs continue to dominate the news, the strategies used by pharmaceutical companies to prevent generic competition are poorly understood, even by the lawmakers responsible for regulating them. In this groundbreaking work, Robin Feldman and Evan Frondorf illuminate the inner workings of the pharmaceutical market and show how drug companies twist health policy to achieve goals contrary to the public interest. In highly engaging prose, they offer specific examples of how generic competition has been stifled for years, with costs climbing into the billions and everyday consumers paying the price. Drug Wars is a guide to the current landscape, a roadmap for reform, and a warning of what is to come. It should be read by policymakers, academics, patients, and anyone else concerned with the soaring costs of prescription drugs.
