Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America

★ Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction ★ Goodread’s Choice Awards – Nonfiction

Focused on dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America, Dopesick brings Beth Macy's economic analysis to a complex and consequential subject. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the connected fields of business & economics and self-help. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. The book ultimately clarifies what made these developments possible, who experienced their effects, and why the story remains significant.
