Operating in the shadows, many "invisible hands" working for Big Pharma elaborate this knowledge: publication planners commission ghostwritten medical journal articles; key opinion leaders and sales representatives are recruited and deployed to subtly change doctors' behaviour; patient organisations, influenced by the industry, spread biased points of view on diseases and treatments. Ultimately, at the end of this ghostly production chain driven by this "assemblage marketing", prescriptions written by doctors will "naturally" make way for the new drugs promoted by pharmaceutical companies. Addressing a wide audience, Sergio Sismondo's aim, with this book of which we offer here a previously unpublished translation, is to lift the veil on the ghost management in the pharmaceutical industry, a management we should all be concerned about, given its major impact on public health. 606 $aPharmaceutical industries$2bicssc 606 $aPolitical science & theory$2bicssc 610 $aBig Pharma 610 $aembedded and systemic corruption 610 $aghost-management 610 $aleader d'opinion 610 $apublication planning 615 7$aPharmaceutical industries 615 7$aPolitical science & theory 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910768385603321 996 $aLe management fantôme de la médecine$94424432 997 $aUNINA
