As someone who has written about research ethics and sits on an Institutional Review Board myself, I was very interested to see what Sheldon Krimsky had to say on the issue of conflicts of interest in science. Anyone who has any kind of background in research ethics knows that conflicts of interest are a huge problem in research (especially in the biomedical fields).

As a whole, this book didn't really provide me with any new information, but I definitely think it would be a worthwhile book for those who are interested in academic research, public health, and science. The book is written for a lay audience, so I think people in the general public will find this book interesting and somewhat alarming.
