Author Tom Nesi
This book seems the antithesis, in some ways, of your life's work. Why did you write it?
My wife died about six years ago. She was very young, and she died of brain cancer. I went through experimental drugs, the talking to doctors—just about everything you can think of—and I found out that it was bogus. [Marketing medicines] was my life's career, and it forced me to really [re-]evaluate. I just didn't want to get out there anymore and tell people such-and-such a drug was a miracle compound when I knew that, (a) it wasn't, and (b) even if it was helping people, it was destroying their quality of life. So it caused me an entire career change—it just changed not just my career but my entire life. We're being duped.
