Greg Critser, “Generation Rx:How Prescription Drugs Are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies”

Los Angeles-based author Greg Critser will deliver a lecture based on his new book, Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs Are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies, which  explores the overmedication of Americans–from children taking ADD medication to senior citizens taking larger and occasionally fatal drug cocktails. Critser applies his incisive reporter’s eye–honed from years of covering the pharmaceutical industry and the politics of medicine–to find out why so many Americans now pop prescription pills like candy.
