Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Brian Deer exposes a conspiracy of fraud and betrayal behind attacks on a mainstay of medicine.'This is a remarkable book' The Times'Riveting' NatureFrom San Francisco to Shanghai, from Vancouver to Venice, controversy over vaccines is erupting around the globe. Fear is spreading. Banished diseases have returned. And a militant 'antivax' movement has surfaced to campaign against immunization. But why?In The Doctor Who Fooled the World, awardwinning investigative reporter Brian Deer exposes the truth behind the crisis. Writing with the pageturning tension of a detective story, he unmasks the players and unearths the facts. Where it began. Who was responsible. How they pulled it off. Who paid.At the heart of this dark narrative is the rise of the socalled 'father of the antivaccine movement': a Britishborn doctor, Andrew Wakefield. Banned from medicine, thanks to Deer's discoveries, he fled to the United States to pursue his ambitions, and now claims to be winning a 'war.'In an epic investigation spread across fifteen years, Deer battles medical secrecy and insider coverups, smear campaigns and gagging lawsuits, to uncover rigged research and moneymaking schemes, the heartbreaking plight of families struggling with disability, and the scientific scandal of our time.2021 winner: Independent Publisher Book Award (IPPY), and 2021 Eric Hoffer Book Award
