How We Do Harm
Brawley’s How We Do Harm book may just as well have been called How Money Runs Medicine. This doctor’s particular concern is with cancer patients and he gives ample examples of how financial incentives, commercial opportunities, conflicts of interests, etc. often “steal the show,” so to speak.

“Too often, helping the patient isn’t the point. Economic incentives can dictate that the patient be ground up as expensively as possible with the goal of maximizing the cut of every practitioner who gets involved.
