Lethal but legal : corporations, consumption, and protecting public health

Freudenberg, N

Lethal but legal : corporations, consumption, and protecting public health - New York Oxford University Press 2014

This book examines how corporations have impacted public health over the last century, first in industrialized countries and now in developing regions. It is both a current history of corporations' antagonism towards health and an analysis of the emerging movements that are challenging these industries' dangerous practices. It outlines reforms that aim to strike a healthier balance between large companies' right to make a profit and governments' responsibility to protect their populations.
