Erowid Library : 'Pharmacracy'
Pharmacracy Medicine and Politics in America by Thomas Szasz
An excellent and seminal book on the pervasive, intrusive, and dangerous power of government officials over our health. Comprehensive, lucid, and provocative, Pharmacracy shows why such power must be ended so that people can control their own lives and benefit from the competitive health-care process only possible when the rights of individuals are fully respected.
-- David J. Theroux, Founder and President, The Independent Institute

A passionate warning of the danger of converting the welfare state into the therapeutic state. Professor Szasz presents a subtle, learned and exhaustive enalysis of the difference between medical illness and mental illness and of the harm from confounding the one with the other.
-- Milton Friedman, Senior Research Fellow, Hoover Institution
