"The Danger Within Us: America's Untested, Unregulated Medical Device Industry and One Man's Battle to Survive It" by Jeanne Lenzer (2017)
Tens of millions of Americans have medical devices inside them, from pacemakers and artificial hips to cardiac stents and breast implants. But what do we really know about the companies that manufacture and sell these products? Lenzer presents an unsettling expose of the under-regulated medical device industry. She reveals the corruption, greed, and deceit that have combined to render medical interventions a leading cause of death in America. (2.0 contact hours)
