An absolutely fantastically well researched and timely book. This book, made me so angry and so aware of the origins of America's opiate epidemic. As a Hoosier I am quite familiar with heroin and pills. It's everywhere. Not only do I read the arrest records, but I deal with the public in my job, have been trained to use Narcan, and years ago dated someone who was an addict. Everything I knew about opiates fit neatly into this tome and helped explain the bigger picture. It's infuriating. This book made me so mad at the pharmaceutical companies, doctors, lawmakers, coaches, and parents. how did we all let this happen?! An eye opening book that helped me view our country in a new light.
