Pharmanomics w/ Nick Dearden
On this week’s Macrodose Nick Dearden takes us on a deep dive into the the history of the pharmaceutical industry - asking how it became the leviathan it is today, why it has been able to assert its unchecked geopolitical influence across the world, and whether there is anything that can be done to loosen its grip on global health.
