n nDeveloping life-changing drugs is risky and expensive--but that's not what makes them unaffordable. n nDrug pricing is a staple of every news cycle and political debate. And while we've struggled for decades to agree on solutions that serve all patients without jeopardizing the invention of new medicines, many Americans suffer because they can't afford the drugs they need.n nDo we really have to choose between affordability and innovation?n nIn The Great American Drug Deal, scientist and industry expert Peter Kolchinsky answers this question with a decisive No. The pharmaceutical industry's commitment to creating new lifesaving drugs destined to become inexpensive generics can be balanced by the healthcare system's commitment to making those drugs affordable for all patients--a Biotech Social Contract.
