I found this book to be truly fascinating! I'd read articles and seen documentaries about Thalidomide and was really hoping the authors wouldn't go into the protracted court proceedings (especially in England) - and they didn't! I was surprised that they spent so little space on the actual "Thalidomiders," but unlike a previous reviewer, this didn't make me dislike the book - it actually made me respect the authors more. Many reviewers already detailed what made this book so great, so I'll skip over that. I will reiterate how readable it was; I think this book is to Thalidomide what "Silent Spring" was to ecology.This book really does start off as a horror story ... It is despicable what Grunenthal's did (and didn't do) and how some of the medical community responded (some babies were swaddled up and the parents discovered their child's deformity when they arrived home from the hospital). I was disappointed that the authors didn't provide what information there might have been on the number of babies who were actually killed by medical staff or negligence (as stated in the documentaries) because I think that this would have made a difference in the number of babies known to have been born with deformities as a result of Thalidomide.I was astonished to learn that Thalidomide is found in semen and was very disappointed when the authors didn't go into more detail about this. This opened up a number of questions for me: they didn't acknowledge that this could have been responsible for countless other Thalidomide babies; because it affected *fetuses* and not women's eggs, isn't it possible that the Thalidomide altered the DNA in sperm, thus causing mutations that were not teratogenic? I just wish they'd devoted an entire chapter on this. They freely speculated throughout the book (which is great because it made me wonder how one comes up with questions like that), so why not speculate on something this important? Or do away with it completely with one paragraph explaining why this isn't a big deal?
