Homo pharmacus Book Reviews
Homo pharmacus by Thomas Hager Book Summary
I farmaci possono dare assuefazione ma anche salvarci la vita. Sono benefici ma anche pericolosi. Danno sollievo, distruggono e proteggono. Sono prodotti high-tech e allo stesso tempo sono i discendenti di riti antichissimi, e per mostrare la loro efficacia devono entrare in un rapporto quanto mai intimo con il nostro corpo. Dalla prima raccolta della linfa di papavero da oppio, avvenuta migliaia di anni fa, fino alle statine e ai recentissimi anticorpi monoclonali, in questo libro Thomas Hager ci regala le brevi biografie di dieci farmaci che hanno scritto la storia della medicina e della nostra cultura, e che hanno contribuito a plasmarci per ciò che siamo oggi: l’Homo pharmacus, il Popolo della Pasticca. I vaccini, la morfina, gli oppioidi, la pillola anticoncezionale, il Viagra e gli antipsicotici diventano così i protagonisti di un racconto in cui si intrecciano anche altri temi: dall’evoluzione del concetto di farmaco alla costante ricerca della pillola magica capace di sconfiggere le malattie senza compromettere la salute, dalla nascita dei colossi farmaceutici (le famigerate Big Pharma) all’evoluzione della figura del medico.
