Book Description
Excerpt from The Pharmaceutical Era, Vol. 23: Weekly; January-June, 1900 The days of the pharmacist whose range covered the entire science and art of pharmacy are nearly over. The pharmacist, in keeping himself posted on the rapidly ln creasing number of medicaments, will find little time for manufacturing pharmaceutical products made by tedious processes. These will be relegated to the manufacturing pharmacist. Let the pharmacist take one last lingering look at those good old days that he reads about, and that he may perhaps wish back again, when he had a labora tory wherein be compounded the whole catalogue of pharmaceutical products, turn his face into the future, and say with Holmes: Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul! As the swift seasons roll! Leave thy low-vaulted past! Let each new temple, nobler than the last, Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast. Till thou at length art free, Leaving thine outgrown shell by life's unresting sea! While looking into the future, it may be well, how ever, not to overlook the present. Political, social and commercial metamorphoses are not brought about in a day, or even a lifetime. The most urgent and most meces sary concern that man has, who is affected by them, is daily bread and butter. No man would -be satisfied with a meal that is guaranteed him fifty years hence. The physician - pharmacist by no means has reached his zenith, nor will he ever be the exclusive apostle of medicine and pharmacy. The present standpoint of the pharmacist is the one that prompts the penning of this article, and it is from this standpoint that we shall consider his right course of conduct. Experience and observation are, per haps, our best teachers, and it is from them that I cull a few tenets.

Book Description
"Tobbell analyzes the political and economic history of the alignment of the pharmaceutical industry, academic institutions and their faculty and organized medicine. This book is essential reading for policymakers and their staff as well as persons who study the history of health policy and those who contribute to it through medical research, advocacy and journalism. " -Daniel Fox, author of The Convergence of Science and Governance: Research, Health Policy, and American States "Dominique Tobbell’s vivid, balanced and probing account of pharmaceutical politics is a significant, needed analysis of the relationships between the pharmaceutical industry, university researchers, the medical profession and government in the Cold War period. More than this, Pills, Power, and Policy shows why it continues to be difficult to agree in the United States on the relative roles of corporate enterprise, government regulation, technological innovation, freedom to prescribe, and consumer marketing and protection, all played out against the rising costs of health care. Timely and thought-provoking."--Rosemary A. Stevens. DeWitt Wallace Distinguished Scholar, Department of Psychiatry, Weill Cornell Medical College "A superb and compelling account of the creation of one of America’s most reviled entities: Big Pharma. With clarity and subtlety, Pills, Power, and Policy weaves together the political, economic, and the medical to reveal the entangled history behind our modern pharmaceutical predicament."--Andrea Tone, Ph.D., Professor of History & Canada Research Chair in the Social History of Medicine, McGill University “Pills, Power and Policy provides an outstanding description and analysis of the evolution of drug policy. It is an extremely important contribution to our understanding of the political, scientific, and economic nature of pharmaceutical regulation." -Daniel S. Greenberg, Washington journalist and author of Science, Money and Politics: Political Triumph and Ethical Erosion
