Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors and the Drug Company that Addicted America (2018/2019 Lectures)
“Dopesick follows the long chain of preventable, profit-driven human misery that is the opioid crisis.” New York Magazine Award-winning investigative reporter Beth Macy delves into America’s 20-plus year struggle with opioid addiction in Dopesick, her bestselling book on the deadly epidemic. Through her harrowing and compassionate portraits of the people behind the raging opioid crisis – from its victims to its profiteers – Macy illustrates how this national crisis has persisted for so long and become so firmly entrenched, and where we go from here. Books will be available for purchase and signing courtesy of Chaucer’s A Thematic Learning Initiative Event
