From his blog:
"Janet Schwartz of Tulane University and I recently spent an evening with a few pharmaceutical reps, men who used to be in the business of selling a wide range of drugs to treat all kinds of diseases and conditions, ... we knew that there was more to the story, so we tried the pharmaceutical reps at their own game – we took them to a nice dinner and kept the wine flowing. Once we got them generously lubricated, they were ready to spill. And what we learned was fairly shocking."
I don't know how shocking most of the findings are, but I like his final recommendation. I find him to be a most thoughtful and interesting writer with a wry sense of humor.
I'd recommend his books for those who enjoy this area of expertise.
