Between 1999 and 2017, an estimated 250,000 Americans died from overdoses involving prescription painkillers, a plague ignited by Purdue Pharma’s aggressive marketing of OxyContin. Families, working class and wealthy, have been torn apart, businesses destroyed, and public officials pushed to the brink. Meanwhile, the drugmaker’s owners, Raymond and Mortimer Sackler, whose names adorn museums worldwide, made enormous fortunes from the commercial success of OxyContin.

Rivetingly accurate portrayal of the opioid crisis
Revisado: 01-16-19
This book was amazing, well researched and accurate. I do a lot of work surrounding the opioid crisis and learned things from this book. A must read for anyone wanting to better understand the inner workings of how American got where it is present day with Opioids.

Fabulous Depiction of REALITY!
Revisado: 04-19-18
James Comey did an outstanding job with this book. I listened to it in its entirety in less than 24 hours. It is so clear that Comey embodies so many admirable characteristics such as honesty, integrity, dignity, ethics, and upholding the American constitution. My how I wish he was our current president. It also saddens me that such an accomplished professional could be so frivolously and vindictively let go over a narcissist dictators insecurities. The truth will set you free, and it’s my hope the great work of James Comey and the FBI will set our country free in coming weeks and months!

Terrifyingly Eye Opening
Revisado: 04-12-18
This book made me tear up in rage... I still cannot believe or comprehend the level of malice, deception, and vindictiveness from the Russian government. It is a very sad time in the world when entire countries will go to such lengths in an attempt to flex power. Sadly, this has resulted in the most laughably devastating president in American history. Great read.

John C. Maxwell explains how true leadership works. It is not generated by your title. To be more than a boss people are required to follow, you must master the ability to inspire and invest in people. You need to build a team that produces not only results, but also future leaders. By combining the advice contained in this audiobook with skill and dedication, you can reach the pinnacle of leadership - where your influence extends beyond your immediate reach for the benefit of others.

From the New York Times best-selling author of Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, a guide for women to find their innate leadership skills and use a leadership approach to be more confident and comfortable in all areas of their lives. The workplace is changing. From the boardrooms to non-profit organizations to the military, the typical male management style is now obsolete. There is a new generation of employees who reject hierarchical leadership and respond to the behaviors and characteristics that women traditionally exhibit.

I loved this book, it’s a great read! The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is because I’d like to see an updated addition for more modernized times! Amazing otherwise!

Three out of four people addicted to heroin probably started on a prescription opioid, according to the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In the United States alone, 16,000 people die each year as a result of prescription opioid overdose. But perhaps the most frightening aspect of the prescription drug epidemic is that it's built on well-meaning doctors treating patients with real problems.

In his latest business fable, top leadership author Mark Miller tells the story of newly appointed CEO Blake Brown, who takes over a company distressed by poor performance and low morale. Nothing Blake learned from his previous job seems to help him deal with the bigger, more complex problems he now faces. The game has changed. As his new mentor points out, Blake is playing a simple game of checkers when he should be playing chess.

Based on seven years of ground-breaking research and hundreds of interviews, I Thought It Was Just Me shines a long-overdue light on an important truth: Our imperfections are what connect us to each other and to our humanity. Our vulnerabilities are not weaknesses; they are powerful reminders to keep our hearts and minds open to the reality that we're all in this together.
