intense stories however, hundejahre only in exerts

Revisado: 12-10-24

I feel a little betrayed. Danziger Trilogy implice full accounts of the three early Grass novels. the main reason why I bought it was 'hundejahre '. however there are only exerts in the audio book. be aware when you buy. there should have been a hint about this fact!

wonderful story told in rich language

Revisado: 07-15-24

I wish the whole book is made avaliable. I cannot wait to hear it all. G.G. has one of the most phantastic style in German language.

sobering account of a greedy and cynical industry

Revisado: 05-21-24

in debth researched, I point of critique: the author speaks often of the 'manufacturers' of drugs when he means the license holder. manufacturing plays a minor role in the whole process (5-10% of the cost). it might be a solution for the whole problem to decouple the 'making and selling' of a drug from the research and development by requiring that independent companies perform these functions. in this setup more transparency would be accomplished.

very comprehensive, difficult to follow

Revisado: 05-07-24

not useful as an audio book. to follow the story, one would need a hardcopy and a set of maps.

excellent research, frightening story

Revisado: 04-21-24

Well researched and convincing presentation.
Three major villains:
- Indian/ Chinese industry and politics
- FDA (not doing it's job)
- Western innovator companies (ridiculous pricing of off patent drugs)

very sobering story and no improvements in sight

not proud to have worked in the pharma industry

Revisado: 04-09-24

like: the comprehensive history
dislike: too much Sackler

the Oxi/ Sackler story takes too much room

seen the full background, there is not much ethical in ethical pharma

pretty honest and insightful description of the events pre post and during the jan-6 events

Revisado: 12-27-23

what I missed was some (self) reflection what lead to Trump. why did he choose to occupy the GOP (and not the Dems)? I think she can contribute significantly to that discussion (maybe in a future volume)

So much information

Revisado: 07-17-23

unbelievable that one person can have such a comprehensible knowledge about literature, music, and art.
just some time one wonders: when somebody knows the wagner drama, turns everything into a wagner drama?

excellent insight into an evil soul

Revisado: 04-04-23

after listening to this book I am not ambiguos about Speer any longer. he was not the technical genius he liked to portray himself, but a (maybe genius) self-image creator and polisher. the production wonder he is still famous for in Germany was a fiction created by him. The ideological distance to the nazis he is still famous for was fiction. people like him were and are necessary to make the devil accepted by the masses.
