No More Tears

Gardiner Harris

An explosive, deeply reported expose of Johnson & Johnson, one of America's oldest and most trusted pharmaceutical companies-from an award-winning investigative journalist

Anexplosive, deeply reported expose of Johnson & Johnson, one of America's oldest and most trusted pharmaceutical companies-from an award-winning investigative journalist

One day in 2004, Gardiner Harris, a pharmaceutical reporter for The New York Times, was early for a flight and sat down at an airport bar. He struck up a conversation with the woman on the barstool next to him, who happened to be a drug sales rep for Johnson & Johnson. Her horrific story about unethical sales practices and thedevastating impact they'd had on her family fundamentally changed the nature of how Harris would cover the company-and the entire pharmaceutical industry-for the Times. His subsequent investigations and ongoing research since that very first conversation led to this book-a blistering expose of a trusted American institution and the largest healthcare conglomerate in the world.

Harris takes us light-years away from the company's image as the child-friendly "baby company" as he uncovers reams of evidence showing decades of deceitful and dangerous corporate practices that have threatened the lives of millions. He covers multiple disasters- lies and cover-ups regarding the link of Johnson's Baby Powder to cancer, the surprising dangers of Tylenol, a criminal campaign to sell antipsychotics thathave cost countless lives, a popular drug used to support cancer patients that actuallyincreases the risk that cancer tumors will grow, anddeceptive marketing that accelerated opioid addictions through their product Duragesic (fentanyl) that rival even those of the Sacklers and Purdue Pharma.

Filled with shocking and infuriating but utterly necessary revelations, No More Tears is a landmark work of investigative journalism that lays bare the deeply rooted corruption behind the image of babies bathing with a smile.
