The book "The Drugs Don't Work" is by a specialist from Penguin, written by Professor Dame Sally Davies, the Chief Medical Officer for England. It examines the serious consequences of antibiotic misuse, warning that if we don’t act immediately, we may return to times where treatable infections and injuries could be fatal. Over the past decades, antibiotics have added an average of twenty years to our lives, but the truth is that we have mistreated these miraculous drugs.
Prof. Dame Sally C. Davies is the first woman to hold the position of Chief Medical Officer for England and has undertaken numerous international advisory roles. Her work focuses on Public Health and Research.
Dr. Jonathan Grant is a senior researcher and former President at RAND Europe, specializing in healthcare research policy. Meanwhile, Professor Mike Catchpole is an internationally recognized expert in infectious diseases and Director of Infectious Disease Surveillance and Control for Public Health England.
This book is suitable for those who read works like "An Inconvenient Truth" by Al Gore and "Bad Pharma" by Ben Goldacre and will be the subject of a TEDex talk by Professor Davies at the Royal Albert Hall.
