Pharmaceuticals play a central role in health care throughout the
world. The pharmaceutical industry is beset with difficulties as
increasing research and development expenditure yields fewer new
treatments. Public and private budgets strain under the weight of
high prices and limited access. The world's poor see little effort
to address diseases prevalent in less affluent societies, while the
world's wealthy are overusing prescription drugs, risking their
health and wasting resources. The debate over health care reform
and the ongoing global economic crisis form the backdrop for this
extraordinarily timely examination of the global system for the
development, production, distribution and use of medicines. The
authors are acknowledged experts in the fields of pharmaceutical
law and policy, with many years experience advising governments,
multilateral organizations and policy-makers on issues involving
innovation, access and use of medicines. Supported by a team of
independent scientists, doctors and lawyers, they take an
insightful look at the issues surrounding global regulation of the
pharmaceutical sector, and offer pragmatic suggestions for reform.
This book will be of interest to government policy-makers, members
of industry, healthcare professionals, teachers, students and
lawyers in the fields of public health, intellectual property and
international trade.
