writing this book was called tales from the script and it's kind of just assessing in the last twenty years of how the industry gets doctors to write prescriptions it's sort of a simple question but i think it's complex which is there to unravel it and i do i do this chapter i talk about well what anthropologists do is a lot like what drug reps do you know we have to do reconnaissance we have to build relationships all for different reasons you know one is for to gain knowledge and insight to help people hopefully and then and the other you know it's to make a buck. from a drug that's going to have to go with the scripts are being written and they're going to be written in this building in this is where they have to keep their samples and they come in and assess this is my product i'm going to get this one nice and high and i'm going to put my competition by over here see put it down there and i just threw it in the corner depending on a man it was and then i put my samples off right here that's probably going to stay there for a while until maybe my competition comes in the pfizer rep was here you could just
