PHARMA MONOPOLY

The Battle for the Future of Medicines


"The freedom and right to access affordable medicines remains a signal challenge for humanity. Books like Tahir Amin and Rohit Malpani's are needed now more than ever to reveal to wider publics the inequities and injustices that riddle the global system."
- Dr. Tlaleng Mofokeng, UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health

"A searing and meticulous account of how a handful of Western drug companies and their government sponsors gained a global death-grip on life-saving medicines. Drawing upon decades of experience – ranging from Big Philanthropy back rooms to the frontlines of advocacy – Tahir Amin and Rohit Malpani have produced an indispensable guide to understanding the current system, its staggering human cost, and how we might move beyond it."
- Alexander Zaitchik, author of Owning the Sun: A People's History of Monopoly Medicine
