Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty by Patrick Radden Keefe

informative

4.75

The origins of the opioid crisis told through 3 generations of a single family. How the founders of the family pioneered a new way of drug advertising and how their children would carry on the legacy ten fold. If you’ve ever heard the name Sackler before, this is a must read. The author did an amazing job researching this book and outlining this story in a way that, while long, feels concise into the point. Highly recommend.
