Medical Experimentation and the Price of Saying No
Shocking cases of abusive medical research and the whistleblowers who spoke out against them, sometimes at the expense of their careers
Carl Elliott fought for an external inquiry into a psychiatric research study at his own university in which an especially vulnerable patient lost his life. His experience frames the six stories in this book of medical research in which patients were deceived into participating in experimental programmes they did not understand.
