In the 21st century, corporations have worked their way into
government and, as they become increasingly more powerful,
arguments about their involvement with public health have become
increasingly black and white. With corporations at the center of
public health and environmental issues, everything chemical or
technological is good, everything natural is bad; scientists who
are funded by corporations are right and those who are independent
are invariably wrong. There is diminishing common ground between
the two opposed sides in these arguments. Corporate Ties that Bind
is a collection of essays written by influential academic scholars,
activists, and epidemiologists from around the world that
scrutinize the corporate reasoning, false science and trickery
involving those, like in-house epidemiologists, who mediate the
scientific message of organizations who attack and censure
independent voices. This book addresses how the growth of
corporatism is destroying liberal democracy and personal choice.
Whether addressing asbestos, radiation, PCBs, or vaccine
regulation, the essays here address the dangers of trusting
corporations, and uncover the lengths to which corporations put
profits before health.
