Description
This book is a collection of posts and essays on healthcare politics, drug safety news, and corruption in the pharmaceutical industry, academia, and healthcare. Funny, provocative, weird, or just entertaining, they bring a fresh perspective to a complicated area. Pimps refer to those who promote for personal profit drugs or devices, while whores are those in academia or elsewhere who allow their reputations and influence to be used for the same purpose. Chiggers are tiny insects in the forest of the Georgia, USA, where the author currently resides, that get under your skin, literally. This book is the first in the four-book series "Pimps, Whores and Chiggers."

Advance Praise
The mainstream media... are flailing and failing. The usual reason given is declining readership and ad revenue, but perhaps the real decline is in their relevancy,insight and truthfulness...In general,if you want to get a skeptical, cogently contextualized view of an issue, you have to go online and read blogs like Drug Safety and Health News Blog by Dr. Douglas Bremner, an exceedingly rare voice of skepticism arrayed against the advertising and lobbying might of the multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical industry.
