Global Pharmaceuticals: Ethics, Markets, Practices
ISBN: 9780822337294 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In some parts of the world spending on pharmaceuticals is astronomical.

The ethnographies brought together in this timely collection analyze both the dynamics of the burgeoning international pharmaceutical trade and the global inequalities that emerge from and are reinforced by market-driven medicine. They demonstrate that questions about who...
